Preparation of the Gifts | Be Magnified

I have leaned on the wisdom of men

But now, Oh Lord, I see my wrong
Heal my heart and show Yourself strong
And in my eyes and with my song,
O Lord, be magnified
O Lord, be magnified

Be magnified, O Lord
You are highly exalted
And there is nothing You can’t do
O Lord, my eyes are on You
Be magnified
O Lord, be magnified

Cup of life is poured
Come share the supper of the Lord

Coming down from Heav’n
Giving life to us, to all the world

“I am the living spring
of eternal life
you that drink from Me shall not thirst again”
