The Great I Am

This is my new favorite worship song. The word "I" is only used to say how much we want to see God.

I wanna to be close close to your side 
So heaven is real and death is a lie 
I wanna hear voices of angels above 
Singing as one 

Hallelujah Holy Holy 
God almighty Great I am 
Who is worthy 
None beside Thee 
God Almighty 
Great I Am 

I wanna be near near to your heart 
Loving the world hating the dark 
I want to see dry bones living again 
Singing as one 

The mountains shake before Him 
The demons run and flee 
At the mention of the name 
King of Majesty 
There is no power in hell 
Or any who can stand 
Before the power and the presence of the Great I am 

I know how worship songs are written and I have a great respect for all of them, but in today's Christian culture, I find we sing about ourselves a lot. We sing about what God has done for us, what he can do for us, and how we love him so much. These things are not bad in any way and they reveal and describe the awesome characteristics of God, but it's nice to find a song that leaves all that behind and simply focuses on how amazing, holy, and incredible God is. My church jammed to this song for probably a half hour today, and it was awesome to be in the moment and forget everything but the glory of God.
