Intro
Verse 1
Were creation suddenly
articulate
With a thousand tongues to
lift one cry
From north to south and east
to west
We’d hear Christ be magnified
articulate
With a thousand tongues to
lift one cry
From north to south and east
to west
We’d hear Christ be magnified
Interlude
Verse 2
Were the whole earth echoing
His eminence
His name would burst from sea
and sky
From rivers to the mountaintops
We’d hear Christ be magnified
His eminence
His name would burst from sea
and sky
From rivers to the mountaintops
We’d hear Christ be magnified
Chorus
Oh Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Verse 3
When every creature finds its
inmost melody
And every human heart its
native cry
Then in one enraptured hymn
of praise
We’ll sing Christ be magnified
inmost melody
And every human heart its
native cry
Then in one enraptured hymn
of praise
We’ll sing Christ be magnified
Instrumental
Bridge
I won’t bow to idols
I’ll stand strong and worship
You
And If it puts me in the fire
I’ll rejoice cause You’re there
too
I won’t be formed by feelings
I’ll hold fast to what is true
If the cross brings transformation
Then I’ll be crucified with You
‘Cause death is just the doorway
Into resurrection life
And if I join You in Your
suffering
Then I’ll join You when You
rise
And when You return in glory
With all the angels and the
saints
My heart will still be singing
My song will be the same
I’ll stand strong and worship
You
And If it puts me in the fire
I’ll rejoice cause You’re there
too
I won’t be formed by feelings
I’ll hold fast to what is true
If the cross brings transformation
Then I’ll be crucified with You
‘Cause death is just the doorway
Into resurrection life
And if I join You in Your
suffering
Then I’ll join You when You
rise
And when You return in glory
With all the angels and the
saints
My heart will still be singing
My song will be the same
Chorus 2
Oh Christ be magnified
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me
Let His praise arise
Christ be magnified in me
Oh Christ be magnified
From the altar of my life
Christ be magnified in me

The song “Christ Be Magnified” by Cody Carnes is a powerful reminder of the importance of magnifying Christ in our lives. The lyrics remind us that if creation could speak, it would cry out in praise of Christ. The song also encourages us to worship Him with our whole hearts, even if it means facing difficult times.
The Bible tells us that we should magnify the Lord in all that we do. In Psalm 34:3, it says, “Glorify the Lord with me; let us exalt his name together.” This verse reminds us that we should be praising and exalting God together. We should be magnifying Him in our lives and in our words.
The song also reminds us that if we join in Christ’s suffering, we will also join Him in His resurrection. In Romans 8:17, it says, “Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.” This verse reminds us that if we are willing to suffer with Christ, we will also be able to share in His glory.
