I’ve completed another original praise song titled We Exalt You. The demo for We Exalt You, which you can hear streamed below, was recorded by Victory Fort’s worship team, with worship leader (and Jam 88.3 DJ) Gabe Gabriel on lead vocal.
I wrote We Exalt You using Psalm 108 as a Biblical basis. Psalm 108 is particularly nice because it takes words that typically work within a worship setting, set to praise. I wrote it with an anthemic feel, using major chords and a driving guitar line. I don’t know if it’ll ever be used in church, but I’m happy enough with the result.

WE EXALT YOU
Gabe Gabriel
Lyrics & Music: Ganns Deen
Lord, I make music with my soul
Awaken the dawn with all my praises for You
Your love is high above us all
And You’re faithful
You are faithful
We shout Holy! Holy! (We honor Your Name, Lord)
Glory! Glory! (Be magnified, Lord)
Worthy! Worthy! Of everlasting praise
We exalt You
We exalt You
Victory is Yours
Victory is Yours
Victory is Yours
If You are with us
Who stands against us
You are faithful
You are faithful
