===Lyrics===
 My Jesus, my Saviour 
 Lord there is none like You 
 All of my days I want to praise
 The wonders of Your mighty love 
 
 My comfort, my shelter 
 Tower of refuge and strength 
 Let every breath, all that I am 
 Never cease to worship You 
 
 Shout to the Lord all the earth let us sing 
 Power and majesty praise to the King 
 Mountains bow down and the seas will roar at the sound of your name 
 
 I sing for joy at the work of Your hands, forever I'll love You, forever I'll stand 
 Nothing compares to the promise I have in You

Nathan Black reporting for the Christian Post
: When the contestants [of American Idol] sang the song [Shout to the Lord] again near the beginning of Thursday's results show, many Christians were pleasantly surprised to hear "Jesus." The religious song, however, continued to irk others who did not find it appealing to a wide audience.
