[G] I just love singing out tonight.
[D] I love just this [G] backdrop, how beautiful it is, and just seeing we lift the cross.
Just that simple little statement tonight, just saying we lift the cross and how powerful that is.
Seeing from the very back of this place to the front, people with their arms out to God, just saying we lift up the cross.
That's the whole reason we're here tonight.
That's the whole reason we have a song.
That's the whole reason we have anything tonight, because of what God has done, because of what Jesus has done.
I just want to sing this song.
I wasn't planning on doing this one on the tour, because it's a new one and it's off the new record.
But we had so much response from it that I just could not.
So many people sending notes, messages, all kinds of crazy ways about this song.
And so I thought we've got to figure out a way to play this.
I just want to sing it over you tonight.
And you know, with this many people in a place, we all come with different stories.
Maybe some of you coming on the best of days and some of us coming on the hardest of days.
Maybe some of you, a friend brought you, you have no idea how you got here.
You're like, this must be the largest karaoke concert in the history of the world.
But the truth is tonight, that God knows where you are right now.
He knows where you're sitting.
He knows your name.
He knows everything about you.
He loves you.
He has an amazing purpose for your life.
Whether you even know it or not, whether you even believe that or not, He loves you.
And He knows where you are.
He knows where you are in life.
He knows what you're bringing in this place.
And you can cast your cares on Him tonight.
He is sovereign.
He is near you tonight.
[Em] [D] [G] Sovereign in the mountain air, sovereign on the ocean floor.
With me in the cold, with me [D] in the [G] storm.
Sovereign in my greatest joy, [Em] sovereign in my deepest [G] cry.
[C] With me in the [G] dark, with me at [D] the dawn.
[G] In your [Em] everlasting arms, all the [G] pieces of my life.
From beginning to the end, I [D] can trust you.
[G] In your never failing [Em] love, you work [G] everything [C] for good.
God, whatever [Em] comes my way, [D] I will trust you.

[G] [D] Sovereign in the mountain [Em] air, sovereign on the ocean [C] floor.
