Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Every moment's a sanctuary
Where I lift up Your Name
Every mountain becomes an altar
Where I offer my praise
To You, You who are worthy
Author of grace
I humbly bow down
To You alone

(Verse 2)
Every flower is robed in spendor
For their glorious King
Every creature declares Your greatness
They so joyously sing
To You, You who are worthy
Author of grace
I humbly bow down
To You alone

(Chorus)
I bow down at Your feet Jesus
I bow down to my Savior
Here my life is complete dear Jesus
This is where I will stay
Lord You reach down and lift me up
Oh the joy that I have found
In You alone

Oh Savior strong and true
My praises all to You
I bow down to You alone
Your glory fills the sky
With tears of joy I cry
I bow down to You alone

To You, You who are worthy
Author of grace
I humbly bow down to You alone
I humbly bow down to You alone
I humbly bow down

(Repeat verse 1)
Every moment's a sanctuary
Where I lift up Your Name
Every mountain becomes an altar
Where I offer my praise
To You, You who are worthy
Author of grace
I humbly bow down
