Christ Be Magnified
By: Bethel Music, Cory Asbury
A E D2 A E D2
VERSE 1
A D2
Were creation suddenly articulate
With a thousand tongues to life one cry
Then from the north to south and east to west
We's 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 mountaintops
We'd hear Christ be magnified
CHORUS
Oh Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
A E D2
VERSE 3
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
CHORUS
D2 E F#m7 A C#
BRIDGE
D2
I won't bow to idols
E
I'll stand strong and worship You
F#m7
If it puts me in the fire
A/C#
I'll rejoice 'cause You're there too
D2
I won't be formed by feelings
E
I hold fast to what is true
F#m7
If the cross brings transformation
A/C#
Then I'll be crucified with You
D2
Cause death is just the doorway
E
Into resurrection life
F#m7
If I join You in your sufferings
A/C#
Then I'll join You when You rise
D2
And when You return in glory
E
With all the angels and the saints
F#m7
My heart will still be singing
E
And my song will ne the same
