Verse

Light of the world

You stepped down into darkness

Opened my eyes, let me see

Beauty that made this heart adore You

Hope of a life spent with You

Chorus

So here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You′re my God

And You’re altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me

Verse

King of all days, oh, so highly exalted

Glorious in heaven above

Humbly You came to the earth You created

All for love′s sake became poor

Chorus

So here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You’re my God

You’re altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me

So here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You′re my God

And You′re altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me

Bridge

And I’ll never know how much it cost

To see my sin upon that cross

And I′ll never know how much it cost

To see my sin upon that cross

Chorus

Here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You’re my God

And You′re altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me

So here I am to worship

Here I am to bow down

Here I am to say that You’re my God

And You′re altogether lovely

Altogether worthy

Altogether wonderful to me
