22   God Is Our Song




[1]
God is our Song and every singer blest
Who praising Him finds energy and rest.
All who praise God with unaffected joy
Give back to us the wisdom we destroy
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
When Jesus leads us upward into light.

[3]
This is the Song no conflict ever drowns;
Who praises God our human wrath disowns.
Love knows what rich complexities of sound
God builds upon a simple common ground
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
Until we find again the voice of praise.
