Lyrics

You’re the God of this (Am)cit y,

You’re the King of these (C)peo ple,

You’re the Lord of this (F)na tion,

You (Dm7)are.

You’re the light in this (Am)dark ness,

You’re the hope to the (C)hope less,

You’re the peace to the (Dm7)rest less,

You (F)are.

(Am)There is (G)no one like our (F)God.

(Am)There is (G)no one like our (F)God.

For great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done in this (C)cit y.

Great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done in this (C)cit y.

You’re the God of this (Am)cit y,

You’re the King of these (C)peo ple,

You’re the Lord of this (F)na tion,

You (Dm7)are.

You’re the light in this (Am)dark ness,

You’re the hope to the (C)hope less,

You’re the peace to the (Dm7)rest less,

You (F)are.

(Am)There is (G)no one like our (F)God.

(Am)There is (G)no one like our (F)God.

For great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done in this (C)cit y.

Great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done in this (C)cit y.

You’re the God of this (G)great er things are still to be done (C)here.

Great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done in this (C)cit y.

Great er things have yet to come, and (G)great er things are still to be done (C)here.
