We Are (A Ted Sandquist Song)

Lyrics after my thoughts on this song
Whenever someone makes the commitment to Christ, that person is no longer defined as an individual in Christ only. No, we are seen by God as something so much more; we are a family, His body, the bride of Christ and so much more. In this song, written partly out of 1 Peter 2, we not only celebrate what we become a part of, but we move our celebration and service and praise out into the world so all can see what they also can become in Him! May you, also, have your eyes opened to how God sees His people, as you worship today
We Are a royal priesthood
One holy nation
We are a chosen generation
we are His special people
Called out of darkness
Into His marvelous light
Once we were not a people
Now we've become the people of God
Once we have not received mercy
Now we've received the mercies of God
And we proclaim His praises
Praise the Lord
Who is Holy
Praise the Lord
For His glory
Praise the Lord
For His goodness and His mercy
Praise the Lord
For salvation
Praise the Lord
For His Kingdom
Praise the Lord
In the cities and the nations
We serve God
Who is Holy
We praise God
For His glory
We serve God
For His goodness and His mercy
We praise God
For salvation
We serve God
For His Kingdom
We praise God
In the cities and the nations
