High and Lifted Up (Joe Pace)

Hallelujah, You're worthy to be praised (Judith Christie-McCallister)

This is the day (Fred Hammond's version)


Glorify Him (Darwin Hobbs)


I'll think of more later.

The deacons at my church alternate between "Glory, Glory Hallelujah" and "Do You Know Him" EVERY sunday. No variation...It's either one or the other.  :D

I'm 50-50 on that 'King of Glory'. First, you've GOT to have the singers to pull it off; but, IDK, sometimes, I'm cool with it, other times, not so much. It's kinda the same thing with 'We've come to Praise Him' ;)

Ness, I don't know why, but every time you mention Grandma Lizzie, I feel like I know her.  :D :D

I like many of the songs that were mentioned.  The only two I can think to add right now are:

Let's Just Praise the Lord (have no idea who sings it)
I'm Glad to be Alive (Hez Walker & LFCC)

Oh, and if your church is more traditional and prefers congregational songs, you can always do:

I don't know what you come to do (ughhhh!!!)
So Glad I'm Here in Jesus' Name
You Won't Leave Here Like You Came in Jesus' Name (the upbeat version)

TD Jakes has a version of that song (if, in fact it isn't the song of which you're speaking) that I just ABSOLUTELY love. And, I SO miss directing it.  :(

As for all of the traditional suggestions, the first two....uggghhhh. I don't know the last one.

I Never Shall Forget What He's Done For Me
The Lord Is Blessing Me
We have Come into this House-gathered in his name...(hymn)
We're In Your House to PRaise Your NAme
Look Where He Brought Me From
Oh To Be Kept (Hymn)
Give Him Glory-Deandre Patterson
