Christ Be Magnified (feat. Cody Carnes)

INTRO:
A   E D    A   E D
VERSE:
                    A                         D
Were creation suddenly articulate
                   A                                       D
With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
                    A/C#                          D        
Then from north to south and east to west
                       A/E       Esus4    A    E D
We'd hear 'Christ be magnified!'

VERSE 2:
Were the whole earth echoing His eminence
His name would burst from sea and sky
From rivers to the mountain tops
                       A/E       Esus4    A    
We'd hear 'Christ be magnified!'

CHORUS:
 A                         A/H  D
O! Christ be magnified!
               Esus   F#m
Let His praise arise
                   Esus             D
Christ be magnified in me
 A                         A/H  D            
O! Christ be magnified!
                Esus   F#m
From the altar of my life
                   Esus             D
Christ be magnified in me

VERSE 3:
When every creature finds its inmost melody
And every human heart its native cry
O then in one enraptured hymn of praise
                       A/E       Esus4     D
We'll sing 'Christ be magnified!'
O be lifted high, Jesus

CHORUS:
O! Christ be magnified!
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me

INSTRUMENTAL:
D  E  F#m   A/C#
BRIDGE:
D
I won't bow to idols, 
                   Esus4
I'll stand strong and worship You
                   F#m
And if it puts me in the fire, 
             A/C#
I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
       D
I won't be formed by feelings, 
         E
I hold fast to what is true
            F#m
If the cross brings transformation then 
            A/C#
I'll be crucified with You
              D
'Cause death is just the doorway 
            E
into resurrection life
               F#m
And if I join You in Your suffering 
                A/C#
then I'll join You when You rise
                    D
And when You return in glory 
                    E
with all the angels and the saints
           F#m
My heart will still be singing and 
          Esus4
my song will be the same

CHORUS:
O! Christ be magnified!
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
O! Christ be magnified!
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O! Christ be magnified!
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
