Who can ascend the mountain of God?
Those with clean hands
And those with pure hearts
Where there was sin
You answered with love
In mercy and kindness, You're leading us up
In mercy and kindness, You're leading us up
Show me Your glory
Show me Your glory
We can ascend
The mountain of God
We have been cleansed
And washed in the Blood
(Oh, thank You, thank You, Jesus)
Oh, hallelujah, the work of the Cross
It's finished, it's final, it's more than enough
It's finished, it's final, it's more than enough
Show me your glory
Show me your glory
Open the gates, lift up your heads
Here comes the King, welcome Him in
Show me Your glory
Oh, oh oh oh oh
Oh, show us Your glory, Jesus
Oh, oh, oh
Higher, higher from glory to glory
We will ascend
Holy, holy
We're singing in wonder holy again
Higher, higher from glory to glory
We will ascend
Holy, holy
We're singing in wonder holy again
Higher, higher from glory to glory
We will ascend
Holy, Holy
We're singing in wonder holy again
Show me Your glory
Show me Your glory
Show me Your glory
Oh, show me Your glory
Open the gates, lift up your heads
Here comes the King, welcome Him in
Show me Your glory
Higher, higher from glory to glory
We will ascend
Holy, holy
We're singing in wonder, holy again
We're singing in wonder, holy again
