God is our Song, and every singer blest

by Fred Pratt Green (1903–)

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 22.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.
