Tune: Woodlands
(\'Tell out my soul\')
*******
O song a song, sing praises all day long
Hearts be uplifted, join the angel throng
Though they ne\'er cease, and \'holy\' be their cry
They worship Him, the one who ne\'er can die
Yet we our voices unto Him too raise
From treasures new and old we give our praise
To worship God, and Christ His only Son
And Holy Spirit, the blessed three in one
In formal style or extempore free
The Lord seeks such as who their worship be
In spirit and in truth to Him alone
The great God, He revealed to us, made known
Add talents, gifts of playing instruments
Sing with understanding and give the sense
Of words, and all invited, all welcome
Contribute your part, excluded are none
Make melody, with tunes harmonious
Give Him the best, the best He gave to us
Christ\'s life given in our place on the cross
Then rose again, there no eternal loss
Beauty for ashes, joy for mourning He
Will give us, we made righteous in Him, see
And garment of praise for the heavy hearts
Robe of righteousness He to each imparts
