Be Praised

All praises to the One from whom it all began
The One who formed the stars and who gave life to man

You set the world in motion, created sky and ocean
And here I stand beloved and called by name.

Be praised
Be praised
Listen to creation
Lifting up Your Name
Be praised
Be praised
Be praised

All praises to the One from whom it all began.
The One who gave Himself to save sinful man.

You scorned the shame of the cross.
My sin, my blame is now gone,
And here I stand beloved and called by name

Be praised
Be praised
Listen to Your people
Lifting up Your Name
Be Praised
Be praised
Be praised

All praises to the One from whom it all began.
The One who conquered death and who will come again.
The nations will behold You as everything becomes new,
And there we'll stand beloved and called by name.
