Here's a full original Zambian Afro-Gospel praise song built around your chorus. I refined the Bemba phrases for a natural congregational flow while keeping the energy high.

## VERSE 1
Before the mountains touched the sky,
You were already God.
Before the oceans knew their place,
Your throne was standing strong.
You spoke and darkness disappeared.
You spoke and life began.
You hold the whole world in Your hands.
Forever You will reign.
When I was weak,
You became my strength.
When I had nothing,
You became enough.
You opened doors
No one could shut.
Now my mouth is filled with praise!

## PRE-CHORUS
Who is like Jehovah?
Nobody!
Who is like our King?
Nobody!
Who deserves the glory?
Jesus!
Who deserves the honour?
Jesus!

## VERSE 2
You made a way
Through the mighty sea.
You fed the hungry
In the wilderness.
You healed the sick.
You raised the dead.
You turned my mourning
Into joyful dancing.
Generation after generation,
Your faithfulness remains.
Morning after morning,
Your mercy is new.
I will sing Your goodness.
I will tell the nations.
Only You deserve
All the praise.
