V1
You owned the silent stars above Bethlehem
You formed the myrrh, the gold, and the frankincense
You made the voices that would raise Your praise
You knew the day that I would find your grace
Chorus
Maker of all ~ make me new
Giver of all ~ give me a passion for You
Create in me a heart so pure
I'll give my all to You
Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~ Own me
V2
You owned the manger that was borrowed for your birth
You formed the angels who proclaimed Your peace on earth
You made the garden of Gethsemane
You grew the tree on which You died for me
Chorus 2
Maker of all ~ make me new
Giver of all ~ give me a passion for You
Create in me a heart so pure
And I'll give my all to You
Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~ Own me
Oh ~ Own ~ me
Bridge
The borrowed womb
And the borrowed tomb
Were designed by Your own Hand
The very stone You rolled away
It was Your own ~ It was Your Day!
Chorus 3
Maker of all ~ make me new
Giver of all ~ give me a passion for You
Create in me a heart so pure
I give my all to You
Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~ Owner of all ~Own me
Oh ~ Own ~ me
Oh ~ Own ~ me
This is an absolutely brilliantly constructed song. The production definitely enhances it and the vocals are amazing. Very upbeat smooth Adult Christian/Rock. Excellent work!
