I Am – The City Harmonic

posted by Susan Diamond

Best Religious Music

Praise ballads touch the heart and connect us to the spiritual yearnings of others. “I Am” by The City Harmonic is a ballad that gets to you from the first line, “I am a man who built his house on sand.” We’re drawn in by the lyrics to “I Am,” the soul searing way they are sung, and the melody that is as emotional as it is inspirational. There’s many who can relate to being a “sorry fool who can’t be glad for what he’s got.” That’s what makes a good song great. A resonance with a message that begs you to replay. “I Am” by The City Harmonic is very Prayable, and we’ve selected it as the best religious music for today’s listeners to enjoy.

I Am Lyrics – The City Harmonic

I am a man who built his house on sand
I am a thief upon a cross
I’m just like Judas, that sorry fool who can’t be glad for what he’s got
That’s why I’m hanging on to the cross on which I’ve flung my hopes and dreams
It’s by the grace of God I hang my head and sing

My God
You are good,
You are great,
You are love
I Am . . .

I am a man who has been bought by love.
I am a man who sold his soul.
I’m like the man, who when he found his pearl:
He gave up everything he owned.

That’s why I’m hanging on to the cross on which I’ve flung my hopes and dreams
It’s by the grace of God I lift my hands and sing – sing!

My God,
You are good.
You are great,
You are love, You are love, You are love, You are love

And I am loved.

Composers: Aaron Powell, Joshua Vanderlaan, Eric Fusilier, Elias Dummer
