Come and worship the Creator who alone is worthy of our praise

Here I Am to Worship

Worship Set 10 - "Christ Be Magnified"

1/8/2020

​As we march forward into the new year and make our new year resolutions and goals, let’s make some goals for our spiritual life also.  Let’s renew our purpose and commitment to Christ.  Let’s review and remind ourselves what a surrendered life to God looks like.  And as we do this, the natural outpouring should be praise.  Praise for all that God has done for us and worship as a sacrifice and offering of surrender.
​To help us do this, I have a brand new song to share with you today.  This song was first released on New Year’s Day in a stadium filled with over 65,000 young adults ages 18-25.  And as the sound of their combined voices joined together to sing this anthem over the new year, it touched my heart and how it must have touched the heart of God!
 
“Christ Be Magnified” by Cody Carnes and Cory Ashbury is a powerful anthem for the church and for the individual Christian.  It is a prayer and a decree, both to God and to ourselves, that all creation is magnifying God and so will we.  The chorus is a prayer and cry of surrender while the bridge is a powerful decree that no matter what life throws our way, we will stay true to our calling and cry of:
“O Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
O Christ be magnified
From the alter of my life
Christ be magnified in me.”
​I pray that this song touches and blesses your heart as much as it did mine.  And that the words and messages contained in it will become your heart’s cry and anthem in 2020.  Here’s “Christ Be Magnified” by Cody Carnes and Cory Ashbury.
"Christ Be Magnified"
by Cody Carnes and Cory Ashbury

Were creation suddenly articulate
 With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
 Then from north to south and east to west  
We’d hear "Christ be magnified!"

Were the whole earth echoing His eminence
His name would burst from sea and sky
 From rivers to the mountaintops
 We’d hear "Christ be magnified!"

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
 
When every creature finds its inmost melody
 And every human heart its native cry
 Oh then in one enraptured hymn of praise
 We’ll sing "Christ be magnified!"

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

I won’t bow to idols
I’ll stand strong and worship You
 If it puts me in the fire
 I’ll rejoice ‘cause You’re there too
 I won’t be formed by feelings
 I hold fast to what is true
 If the cross brings transformation
 Then I’ll be crucified with You
 
'Cause death is just the doorway
 Into resurrection life
 If I join You in Your sufferings
 Then I’ll join You when You rise
 And when You return in glory
 With all the angels and the saints
 My heart will still be singing
 And my song will be the same:

​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
