The Covenant

(Verse 1) In the haunting of the valley, where the giants often speak, When the world is loudly boasting and the broken feel so weak. I will look back to my younger years, to the altars of my past. I remember every promise, every word that's meant to last, Christ has moved the highest mountains, And broken every chain; So I will not be shaken, I will cry out your holy name.... (Chorus) For what You have done, O Lord, I will praise You forever! My voice will cry out with the saints who stood before! In the presence of the faithful, our hearts beat as one, We declare that You are good, we declare that You are Lord! I will hope in Your name, it’s a fortress and a tower, I will hope in Your name, My God, full of majesty and power! (Verse 2) When the wicked plot in secret, and the righteous seem to fade, I will anchor in the goodness of the covenant You made! For the enemy is fleeting, like a root torn from the ground, But the ones who trust the Father are the ones who will abound. Like a green olive tree in the house of the Divine, I am rooted in Your mercy, and Your victory is mine.... (Chorus) For what You have done, O Lord, I will praise You forever! My voice will cry out with the saints who stood before! In the presence of the faithful, our hearts beat as one, We declare that You are good, we declare that You are Lord! I will hope in Your name, it’s a fortress and a tower, I will hope in Your name, My God, full of majesty and power! (Bridge) Oh God, Your name is Good! In the morning, we will sing it! Your name is Good! In the evening, we will shout it! From generation to generation, the faithful will proclaim; There is healing, there is rescue, there is freedom in Your name! There is freedom in Your name! (Chorus) For what You have done, O Lord, I will praise You forever! My voice will cry out with the saints who stood before! In the presence of the faithful, our hearts beat as one, We declare that You are good, we declare that You are Lord! I will hope in Your name, it’s a fortress and a tower, I will hope in Your name, My God, full of majesty and power! (Outro) Your name is good... Jesus, I will hope in Your name. In the presence of Your people, I will give You praise.... When I feel defeated, And my faith seems to fade, I will rest in your goodness Lord, And the Covenant You've Made!
