All Praise to God for Song God Gives
1. All praise to God for song God gives,
For music and a hope that lives;
God's sacred word is so profound,
We sing and let the truth resound.
Refrain:
God gave us music, gave us voice;
Sing alleluia and rejoice!
We lift in faith secure and strong
The sacred word through sacred song.
2. The word gives both the life and light,
And guides us through the shades of night,
So let the music sound God's praise
As hymns bring gladness to our days.
(Refrain)
3. In song let God be glorified,
For God is able to provide
The music for the singers' art
As song God places in the heart.
(Refrain)
4. All praise to God, whose sacred word
Has brought good news to all who heard.
We worship God and sing with joy,
And instruments of praise employ.
(Refrain)
