You Are Lord

You Are Lord

A Poem by Cory Stonestreet
"

This is a song that I wrote for church.

"

Verse 1

Everybody is always searching

Always trying to find love these days

But what they don’t realize is

That they’re looking in the wrong place

 

Verse 2

There is one man who bled for our sins

He loves us so much that he gave his life

This man is our Lord and Savior

He is Jesus, He is Christ

 

Pre-Chorus

He was sent from Heaven to earth

To die on the cross

And all of this

He has done for us

 

Chorus

So because of all of this

I drop to my knees

I just want to praise you

I want to sing of your glory

I'll worship Your name 

Forevermore

I'll live my life for you

I want to shout to the world that

You are Lord!

 

Verse 3

Nobody truly understands

The huge price that you’ve paid

When you carried the cross up that hill

And was hung upon it to die that day

 

Verse 4

They spread your arms wide open

Then put nails through your hands

As they stood the cross up

The guards gave you a smug glance

 

Pre-Chorus

As you hung there

You looked up in the sky

You said “Father please forgive them”

As a tear fell from your eye

 

Chorus

So because of all this

I drop to my knees

I just wanna praise You

I want to sing of Your glory

I'll worship Your name

Forevermore

I'll live my life for You

I want to shout to the world that

You are Lord!

 

Bridge

As the crown of thorns

Just lies on your head

Within a little while

You were dead

But three days later

You rose from the grave

Now all those who believe

Can be saved

 

Chorus

So because of all of this

I drop to my knees

I just want to praise you

I want to sing of your glory

I'll worship Your name

Forevermore

I'll live my life for You

I want to shout to the world that

You are Lord!

 

End

You are Lord

Oh you are Lord

My God, my Savior

You are Lord

Forevermore

Forevermore

You are Lord

Yes you are lord
