Song of the Moment: Be Lifted Up

Being musically inclined, I often have songs that I listen to over...and over...and over...just because there's something about them at that particular moment that just makes me feel something. Right now, this is that song:

Be Lifted Up, by Paul Oakley
Be lifted up
Be lifted up
As we bow down, be lifted up

Be lifted up
Be lifted up
As we bow down, be lifted up

Let the heavens rejoice
Let the nations be glad
Let the whole earth tremble
For you are God
Come and worship the Lord
In the beauty of holiness

As we bow down, be lifted up

This song is an E-A-B chord progression, with a C#m chord late in the chorus, so it's very easy to play, and simple, which is probably why I like it so much. I actually prefer the version sung by The Livingstone Collective on their CD "Portrait of Worship" to the version sung by Paul Oakley, in case anyone wants to check it out on iTunes.
