Verse 1
When in our music God is glorified, And adoration leaves no room for pride, It is as though the whole creation cried: Alleluia! Alleluia!

How oft, in making music, we have found A new dimension in the world of sound, As worship moved us to a more profound Alleluia! Alleluia!
Verse 3
And did not Jesus sing a psalm that night When utmost evil strove against the light? Then let us sing for whom He won the fight: Alleluia! Alleluia!

Let every instrument be used for praise; Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise; And may God give us faith to sing always: Alleluia! Alleluia!
