Verse 1:
        Db                   Gb2
Were creation suddenly articulate
       Db                          Gb2
With a thousand tongues to lift one cry
          Db/F               Gb2
Then from north to south and east to west
           Db/Ab       B(add4)     Db     Ab    Gb2
We'd hear "Christ be magnified!"


Verse 2:
         Db                         Gb2
Were the whole earth echoing His eminence
    Db                             Gb2
His name would burst from sea and sky
     Db/F          Gb2
From rivers to the mountaintops
           Db/Ab       B(add4)   Db       Db2       Db
We'd hear "Christ be magnified!"


Chorus:
Db           Dbsus/Eb Gb2
O Christ be magnified
        Absus      Bbm7
Let His praise arise
          Absus  Gb2
Christ be magnified in me
Db           Dbsus/Eb Gb2
O Christ be magnified
               Absus    Bbm7
From the altar of my life
          Absus  Gb2
Christ be magnified in me


Verse 3:
           Db                            Gb2
When every creature finds its inmost melody
          Db                      Gb2
And every human heart its native cry
           Db/F           Gb2
Oh then in one enraptured hymn of praise
            Db/Ab      B(add4)  Gb2   Gb6         Db/Gb        Gb2
We'll sing "Christ be magnified!"

Bridge:
Gb2
I won't bow to idols
           B(add4)
I'll stand strong and worship You
      Bbm7
If it puts me in the fire
       Db/F
I'll rejoice cause You're there too
  Gb2
I won't be formed by feelings
       B(add4)
I hold fast to what is true
       Bbm7
If the cross brings transformation
              Db/F
Then I'll be crucified with You
       Gb2
'Cause death is just the doorway
     B(add4)
Into resurrection life
     Bbm7
If I join You in Your sufferings
          Db/F
Then I'll join You when You rise
         Gb2
And when You return in glory
             B(add4)
With all the angels and the saints
   Bbm7
My heart will still be singing
       B(add4)
And my song will be the same

Christ be magnified in me

O Christ be magnified
                       Db/F
From the altar of my life

Christ be magnified in me
