"God of This City" Lyrics:

You're the God of this City 

You're the King of these people 

You're the Lord of this nation 

You are 

You're the Light in this darkness 

You're the Hope to the hopeless 

You're the Peace to the restless 

You are 

There is no one like our God 

There is no one like our God 

For greater things have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done in this City 

Greater thing have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done in this City 

There is no one like our God 

There is no one like our God 

For greater things have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done in this City 

Greater things have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done here 

There is no one like our god 

There is no one like our God 

Greater things have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done in this City 

Greater things have yet to come 

And greater things are still to be done here

Reflection:

My favorite lines from this week’s song are: “Greater things are still to come. Greater things are yet to be done.” This seems to echo all of the teachings of Pope Francis. The pope is constantly calling all Christians to not grow weary in our faith. We can never reach a point and think there’s nothing left for me. Our entire lives are about getting closer to God, knowing him better, and loving him better. This is never finished. As long we’re working at it, greater things are definitely still to come.


Jeremiah 10:6 – “No one is like you, LORD, you are great, great and mighty is your name.”


Luke 1:49 – “The Mighty One has done great things for me and holy is his name.”
