Laura Story and Jesse Reeve’s Indescribable stands up to continued singing.
God centered, psalmic in expression and the variation in lyrics in the second chorus which personalises the awed praise which the song voices.
Here’s some background on the song from Story.

The lyrics:
1.
From the highest of heights
To the depths of the sea
Creation’s revealing Your majesty
From the colours of fall
To the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique
In the song that it sings
All exclaiming
Chorus.
Indescribable, uncontainable
You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name
You are amazing, God
All powerful, untamable
Awestruck, we fall to our knees
As we humbly proclaim
You are amazing, God
2.
Who has told every lightning bolt
Where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses
Laden with snow?
Who imagined the sun
And gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night?
None can fathom
Chorus.
Indescribable, uncontainable
You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name
You are amazing, God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart
And you love me the same
You are amazing God

Here’s Laura Story’s rendition of the song.

There’s a pretty ubiquitous Chris Tomlin version around. I haven’t heard it. I don’t have the hearing range of a dog, so I don’t know if I’d be able to.
