Before the earth, before the skies
You reign in power, strong and wise
Nations rise, and nations fall
But You alone are over all
The kings may rule, their banners fly
But only You can satisfy
All kingdoms bow, their glory fades
But You alone reign over all
The kings may rule, their banners fly
But only You can satisfy
All kingdoms bow, their glory fades
But You alone will never change
Oh, You rule above the world
Over all we see
The nations tremble, all will bow
And lift their eyes to Thee
America, You stand above
Chosen to lead with power and love
Your light will shine, Your banner raised
We lift our voice in endless praise
Above all nations, You are called
To lead the way, to never fall
America, our trust in You
Forever strong, forever true
From sea to sea, from shore to shore
Your mighty hand will reign forevermore
We hear Your call, we rise as one
For freedom's fight has just begun
Oh, You rule above the world
Over all we see
The nations tremble, all will bow
And lift their eyes to Thee
America, You stand above
Chosen to lead with power and love
Your light will shine, Your banner raised
We lift our voice in endless praise
Above all nations, You are called
To lead the way, to never fall
America, our trust in You
Forever strong, forever true
Your name is written in the stars
No other nation comes this far
A shining city on the hill
Our purpose now, we will fulfill
America, You are called
America
America, You stand above
Chosen to lead with power and love
Your light will shine, Your banner raised
We lift our voice in endless praise
Above all nations, You are called
To lead the way, to never fall
America, our trust in You
Forever strong, forever true
Above all nations, You are called
America, You stand tall
