We leave you with this modern day Hymn from Garden Cities’ Album, The Gospel of John , and we would encourage you to get on our mailing list for when we release our Modern Hymn Projects. Notice the attempt that is made here to combine the choruses of today, with the rich Trinitarian theology that is so dear to us from our history. Notice also how this song tells a story—the story of God. One of the strengths of hymnody that has been lost in large part in our church singing today, is the ability to tell stories, build a progression of thought, and teach truth through songs.
| Verse 1 |
Christ became man, Incarnate son
God coming down to meet us
So now we lift up our voices in praise
The Word in flesh, descending
Into a Virgins womb
Showing the depth, the weight of humility
| Chorus 1 |
So raise your voice, for the God of heaven has come down to earth
Praise your King
So raise your voice He was born to live in us
In His bride, with His church, He's our Home
| Verse 2 |
Christ lifted up on a cross
Exalted in such atrocity
He had to suffer to be glorified
Rising to life in victory
Over the grave and now
He has secured eternity for us
| Chorus 2 |
So raise your voice our God’s perfected love, lifted up
Praise your King
So raise your voice as He rides the clouds above
Ascended Lord, our Leader, our Home
| Verse 3 |
Back in the embrace of the Father
Our Messiah on His throne
The Spirit’s power now can live in and through us
God now has made us His home
In our hearts through faith
The Spirit’s seal a firm assurance
| Chorus 3 |
So raise your voice God in flesh now prays for us
He intercedes, Praise your King
So raise your voice, the Father sends His love
His Spirit sent, our Comfort our Home
| Verse 4b |
Christ will return again
Bringing heaven to earth
Renewing all things
God will dwell with man
| Chorus 4 |
So raise your voice, heaven lives and moves on earth, sing oh, church
Praise your king
So raise your voice the kingdoms now and yet to come
We await as His bride, our Home
