Tune: St Michael
('The Lord is risen indeed')
Psalm 47
*********
Clap hands, all you people
Praise, shout unto God all
With the voice of triumph, He Lord
True be His every word
He the LORD God most high
Awesome, yet to us nigh
He o'er all the earth a great King
Praises now to Him sing
He shall subdue all to
Himself, and we shall view
Him as LORD over all nations
All folk of all stations
He our inheritance
Shall choose for us, not chance
His nation Israel, excellent
Graces He has us sent
God ascends with a shout
Voice of triumph, no doubt
Sing praises with understanding
To Him our Lord and King
He reigns e'er over all
O'er all things great and small
Sits on throne of His holiness
His intent us to bless

Hey yo.. this has a modern feel to it and then some... got me feet tapping very nearly..... N 🙂
Thanks Neville. I'm not much of a fan of happy clappy though! At least they're alive though. Pop into some places - you may say 'Anyone alive in 'ere?'
BUENAS TARDES ~ Tio Mio Steve ~ Any Hymn about the Ressurection gets our VOTE ~ AMEN.
Palm 47 v 6 Sing Praises to GOD ~ Sing Praises ~ Sing Praises to our KING ~ Sing Praises ! One big thing we miss in Virtual Church is the Singing. However on Praise Zoom ~ We can all sing together ~ AMEN. Still it has its advantages - People who cant sing can MIME !
Blessings to You & Your curious CUR
Love int Spirit Angela Brian & Smokey !
Buenas wotsit too A&B. Bonjour! That's about my extent of French. lol.
Two elderly folk chatting 'Ohh Mrs A has gone to that charismatic church'. Reply is: 'Oh, all I know is I'm arthritic; is charismatic similar to that?!'
Though arthritis is no joke. I've a black humour joke about Covid and Jehovah's Witnesses - if you want it?
