In The Sanctuary Lyrics
Kurt Carr & The Kurt Carr Singers
Lyrics
We lift our hands in the sanctuary.
We lift our hands to give You the glory.
We lift our hands to give You the praise,
and we will praise You for the rest of our days;
yes, we will praise You for the rest of our days.
Jesus, we give You the praise.
Emmanuel, we lift up Your name,
Heavenly Father, coming Messiah;
and we will praise You for the rest of our days,
yes, will praise You for the rest of our days,
Yes,
yes, Lord for the rest of our days.
Hallelujah, hallelujah,
hallelujah for the rest of our days.
And we will praise You for the rest of our days.
