who, praising him, finds energy and rest.
All who praise God with unaffected joy
give back to us the wisdom we destroy.
2 God is our song, for Jesus comes to save;
while praising him we offer all we have.
New songs we sing, in ventures new unite,
when Jesus leads us upward into light.
3 This is the song no conflict ever drowns;
who praises God all human wrath disowns.
Love knows what rich complexities of sound
God builds upon a simple, common ground.
4 God is our silence when no songs are sung,
when ecstasy or sorrow stills the tongue.
Glorious the faith which silently obeys
until we find again the voice of praise. Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-10 Languages: English Tune Title: MORESTEAD

let creation shout and sing!
