Tune: Lyngham

('O for a thousand tongue to sing')

Psalm 47

Repeat lines as shown.

********

O clap your hands, you people all

Upon the Lord do call (x2)

Shout unto God, triumphant voice

You have made Him your choice (x3)

 

For He the LORD, most high, terrible

To the awesome God call (x2)

He is a great King o'er all the earth

Praise Him, give Him His worth (x3)

 

He shall subdue our enemies

And so each one then sees (x2)

That He is Lord high over all

Trusting, you shall not fall (x3)

 

He shall choose our inheritance

And there be His presence (x2)

He chooses, gives things excellent

All from His good hand sent (x3)

 

For He His people loves ,for them cares

Each in His bounties shares (x2)

God is gone up with a strong shout

Let trumpets sound ring out (x3)

 

Sing praises to God, e'en your praise

With understanding raise (x2)

Your joyful songs unto your King

Let every tongue now sing (x3)

 

God reigns o'er all the nations, see

He sits on His throne, He (x2)

The holy God for evermore

Come worship and adore (x3)

            Yes, cough, splutter. Clapping in church? And tambourines?! Heretical! People will choke on their coffee after the service! heehee. I'm a bit of a mixture. Dunno what I do want sometimes. Charismatic, formal, or what?

            I thought I had already replied to this one. Another good one Orchi.

              Thanks Gold. You, or anyone, getting any tambourines out today?! Some drums sit (unused) in a corner of a church. Dunno if they are ever used, as the average age of congregation looks about 90. Will they have a rave-up?!
