lyrics version 1
The blue Pacific on a summer's day
Rushing in to meet the yellow sand
The view's terrific, I see Monterrey
Looking mighty fine from where I stand
The water dances in the sun's reflection
A thousand silver birds are flying my direction
Now isn't this beauty and ain't this sweet perfection
And it's one more reason to praise your name
One more reason to love you father
The sky is singing, the earth proclaims
Always one more reason to praise your name
I climbed the mountain to see your face
And saw a golden sunset in the sky
It's always different but still the same
And when I take it in it's then I realise
It's like the feeling of loving you
It's always changing but always true
Old as time, yet ever new and right before my eyes
I'm seeing one more reason to praise your name
One more reason to love you father
The sky is singing, the earth proclaims
Always one more reason to praise your name
From the dawn to the setting of the sun
I look around at everything you've done
You are the lord of heaven, you're the lord of the earth
You are the father of the mountains and the sea
And through your spirit we have a second birth
And in your place you've made a place for me
I look ahead but I don't ever look behind
I know that I'm a part of your grand design
And now and always I know I'm gonna find
One more reason to praise your name
One more reason to love you father
The sky is singing, the earth proclaims
Always one more reason
I can praise you for every thing you've done
I can praise you for making me your son
But the greatest praise by far is praising who you are
(Yahweh)
One more reason to praise your name
One more reason to love you father
The sky is singing, the earth proclaims
Always one more reason
Never out of season
Always one more reason to praise your name
(One more reason to praise your name) One more reason
(One more reason to love you father) Oh always one
(One more reason to praise your name) More reason I must praise
(One more reason to love you father) Your name, always one more reason
(One more reason to praise your name) Always one more reason to praise your name
(One more reason to love you father) Always one more reason
(One more reason to praise your name) Always one more reason I should praise your name
(One more reason to love you father) One more reason
(One more)
Rushing in to meet the yellow sand

And it's one more reason to praise your name
One more reason to love you father
