Over all the earth you reign on high
Every mountain stream, every sunset sky
But my one request, Lord my only aim
Is that you'd reign in me again
Lord reign in me, reign in your power
Over all my dreams, in my darkest hour
You are the Lord of all I am
So won't you reign in me again
Over every thought, over every word
May my life reflect the beauty of my Lord
Cause you mean more to me than any earthly thing
So won't you reign in me again

Behind the Song:
"10 years old and still one of my first prayers. I was going through such a hard time that these words just poured out as a prayer in one sitting. it wasn't one of those songs that come through bible study. it was one of those that come through tears! of course my theology caught up with my heart a few years later when i studied the kingdom of god and how god's kingdom is both present on earth [2 Kings 19:14-16] - and still coming [luke 11.2] ... i guess this song expresses that awareness a little bit as a personal prayer. Surrounded by the mountains and oceans of california I am still daily amazed by the beauty of our God and still find myself asking if our Creator of this beautiful world won't come and recreate and reign in me." - Brenton Brown
