He reigns
It’s the song of the redeemed,
rising from the African plain
rising from the African plain
It’s the song of the forgiven,
drowning out the Amazon rain
drowning out the Amazon rain
The song of Asian believers,
filled with God’s holy fire
filled with God’s holy fire
It’s every tribe, every tongue, every nation,
a love song born of a grateful choir
a love song born of a grateful choir
It’s all God’s children singing, glory, glory, Hallelujah,
He reigns, He reigns
He reigns, He reigns
It’s all God’s children singing, glory, glory, Hallelujah,
He reigns, He reigns
He reigns, He reigns
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals,
to the faithful gathered underground
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation,
some were meant to persist
some were meant to persist
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples,
none rings truer than this
none rings truer than this
Let it rise above the four winds,
caught up in the heavenly sound
caught up in the heavenly sound
It’s all God’s children singing, glory, glory,
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
And all the powers of darkness,
tremble at what they’ve just heard
tremble at what they’ve just heard
‘Cause all the powers of darkness,
can’t drown out a single word
can’t drown out a single word
When all God’s children sing out, glory, glory,
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
All God’s children singing, glory, glory,
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
Hallelujah, He reigns, He reigns
