How Great (feat. Jay Electronica & My Cousin Nicole)

How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
Everyone will see how great our God is
How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
Everyone will see, how great, how great is our God

Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
And my heart will sing how great is our God
Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
And my heart will sing how great is our God

How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
Everyone will see how great our God is
How great is our God
Sing with me, how great is our God
Everyone will see how great, how great, how great
How great, how great, how great, how great our God is

The first is that God is better than the best thing in the world
God is better than the best thing the world has to offer
Magnifique, magnifique, raise it high
Spit it Spotify to qualify a stain on His side
I can't modify or ratify, my mother made me apple pies
Lullabies and alibis

The book doesn't end with Malachi
The devil will win the employee of the month by the dozen
Until a year and three of the third, when he doesn't win
My village raised them like children and when they're past the cradle, it's exploding
If you meet someone from my town, they'll say we're cousins
Shabach barak, build

Electrify the enemy like Hedwig until they're petrified
Any insignificant Peter Petigrew can pick up the pesticide
79th, 79th, I don't believe in science
I believe in signs
I don't believe in signs, I've seen dollar signs
Colored white collar crime
Good God, the gift of freedom

Saint Hosanna summoned
And woke the slaves of Southampton to Chatham Manor
My dream girl's behind me, I feel like James Early
The kind of worship that makes Jesus come back a day early
With the faith of a mustard seed the size of a pumpkin seed
Listen, for I will speak noble things that have been entrusted to me
Fair enough, I could just ignore the fraud
I couldn't bear to see another rapper lose custody
Exalt, exalt, glorify

Come down to earth with swords
And fortify the borders where your little ones are
I used to hide from God
Hiding in the slums like shh
I was lost in the jungle like Simba after Mufasa's death
No pig, no meerkat, hakuna matata during the day
But I spent my night fighting back tears
I prayed and prayed and left messages
But never received an answer, or so it seemed

A grain of mustard seed was all I needed to sow a dream
I built the ark to row my boat gently, gently, down Noah's stream
Sometimes the path I took to achieve my petty goals was so extreme
I was so buried in the mud that I couldn't even let my light shine through
But you were always there when I needed to call a friend or use a lifeline
From an elevated height, we fought
In the poltergeist with the exalted Christ

We illuminated the darkness with the pulse of light
We attack a corpse with a pulse of life
I spit in the Tidal, its gigantic waves
I spit on an apple and kill a worm
A fire in Cali will swallow up a valley for every African village burnt down
Jay Elect would never have made it
Son of man, son of man

Who was the angel of the Apocalypse with one foot in the water and one foot on earth?
Who was the angel who rode a Harley from the project to Parliament House?
And opened the book in the Devil's chamber and put the true name of the Lord in it?
Old Jerusalem, New Jerusalem
She comes like this beast with a ball of fire
They poisoned the scriptures and gave us the images of false messiahs
It was all a lie
Mysterious Babylon in ruins
Satan's establishment is crumbling
This is the year I come for the crown
I will bury my enemies underground
