Not unto us, not unto us,
but unto Your name give the glory.

I waited. I waited a long time.
And He turned His head and He heard me.
He reached all the way down into the pit
and He pulled me up out of the clay.

Not unto us, not unto us,
but unto Your name give the glory.
Not unto us, not unto us -
for Your mercy, for Your truth.

He set my feet on something that holds.
He taught me how to walk again.
And He put a new song in my mouth -
this one. He put this one.

Not unto us, not unto us,
but unto Your name give the glory.
Not unto us, not unto us -
for Your mercy, for Your truth.

The first time I sang it I could not mean it.
I said it till it was true.
Now I can lift my head and say it,
and I am going to say it loud.

Many will see it, and they will fear,
and they will put their trust in Him.
That is the only reason I am standing here.
That is the only reason to sing.

Not unto us, not unto us,
but unto Your name give the glory.
Not unto us, not unto us -
for Your mercy, for Your truth.

Not unto us.
Not unto us.
