Story Behind The Song
Honestly, I wish all my songs were like this one - a praise song that's not exclusive to one particular sound or people. This song started with the groove and the horn line and the lyrics were written on top of that.
I like the thought of praising God for His holiness. Often, when we think of God's holiness, we think of the Law of the Old Testament and its rigid regulations. However, another aspect of holiness is perfection - all God is and all He does is perfect - even in the way He deals with us!
Special thanks to Bo and Chloe for knocking it out on vocals! Be blessed! - Peter

Lyrics
You Are Holy
Verse
Standing in the presence of the almighty God
To glorify the Lamb upon the throne
Awesome in Your power
And Lord of everything
I?m giving all my praise to You alone
You?re worthy of blessing
All honor and acclaim
Let everything within me
Only live to praise Your name
Chorus
You are holy Lord in all of Your ways
So with my lips I?ll glorify You
With my mouth I?ll sing Your praise
You are holy Lord, merciful and true
So Lord of all creation I give honor unto You
Bridge
With all of my lifetime, with all of my days
I?ll lift my hands, lift my voice to sing Your praise
To tell of Your greatness, Your majesty and fame
With everything I?ll bless Your holy name
