Lyrics:

v1
With voices of joy, we sing praise to the King!
Oh, friend, lend me an ear, hear the news that we bring.
God loved us so much that He gave us His Son,
Who died and rose; for us, the vict’ry He won!

v2
With hearts full of love, we show thanks to the Lord!
He inspired the writers who gave us His Word.
That Word speaks so loud and it shows us the way,
So we may follow and be with Him that day!

v3
With voices so soft, we lift prayers to our God.
We plead for forgiveness, His mercy, and love.
We thank Him for blessing our small, earthly lives.
With one voice, shouting, “Praise His name up on high!”

Chorus
Our praise be to God! He is our great escape.
He shields us from sin and the venom of the snake.
He could have brought His wrath, but He held it in its place.
That’s why we sing His praise!
