Lyrics
Remember those walls that we called sin and shame
They were like prisons that we couldn’t escape
But He came and He died and He rose
Those walls are rubble now
Remember those giants we called death and grave
They were like mountains that stood in our way
But He came and He died and He rose
Those giants are dead now
This is our God
This is who He is
He loves us
This is our God
This is what He does
He saves us
He bore the cross
Beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God
King Jesus
Remember that fear that took our breath away
Faith so weak that we could barely pray
But He heard every word, every whisper
Now those altars in the wilderness
Tell the story of His faithfulness
Never once did He fail and He never will
This is our God
This is who He is
He loves us
This is our God
This is what He does
He saves us
He bore the cross
Beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God
King Jesus
Who pulled me out of that pit
He did, He did
Who paid for all of our sin
Nobody but Jesus
Who pulled me out of that pit
He did, He did
Who paid for all of our sin
Nobody but Jesus
Who rescued me from that grave
Yahweh, Yahweh
Who gets the glory and praise
Nobody but Jesus
Who rescued me from that grave
Yahweh, Yahweh
Who gets the glory and praise
Nobody but Him
This is our God
This is who He is
He loves us
This is our God
This is what He does
He saves us
He bore the cross
Beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God
King Jesus
He bore the cross
Beat the grave
Let heaven and earth proclaim
This is our God
King Jesus
Oh this is our God

About This Song
Phil Wickham comments on his song "This Is Our God" saying, "I am so thankful that when I sing to the God, Jesus Christ, I am not singing to a distant being far off. But I'm singing to a God who came close who came to save us, and to rescue us. When we sing about our God, we sing about a God who loves without condition, who gives grace to the sinner, who saves the one who calls out. Who pulls people out of the pit and bring them into his heavenly kingdom. This is our God. A God who saves, a God who redeems, a God who makes beauty from ashes, a God who renews. This is our manifesto. I cannot wait to sing this song with our church."
