You are Here
Music and Lyrics by Matt Christenot

Verse 1
Before our hands were raised, you sat upon your throne
Before our voices sang, you made the earth below
Before the sun shone forth, your presence hovered still
Then all the universe, sprang forth to do your will

Pre-Chorus
The whole earth is filled with the glory of the Lord

Chorus
You are here, you are here as we come into this place
We come alive, come alive, at the promise of your grace
Let us see you God, for everything you are

Verse 2
O God, yes we confess, we did not bring you here
But by your blood alone, we’re asking to draw near
Open our eyes to see, to know you deeper still
Your Spirit in our hearts, your fullness now indwells

Bridge
All praise to the God who was, and is, and is to come

Chorus 2
You are here, you are here as we come into this place
We come alive, come alive at the promise of your grace
We are here, we are here and we’ve come into this place
Cause you’re alive, you’re alive and we’re living for your name
