This a Peter Grant hymn based on Psalms 98 and 149 that is in the As One Voice digital archive. It is a gentle but joyous song of praise for thanksgiving and sending forth from Mass. The tune goes in unexpected directions and the triplets in the verse are effective. Peter is taking over the ! mantle from Frank Andersen!
The sheet music can be purchased at As One Voice. There is a wordless melody sample there.
I made my own backing to sing along to so I can learn the song.
Refrain
Lift up your hands! Lift up your voices in the praise of Jesus our Lord!
Lift up your hearts! Sing and rejoice and give praise to Jesus our Lord!
1 Sing to the Lord a new song of praise
in the assembly of the faithful.
Let people be glad! Let children rejoice!
Come praise him with dance, with music and voice!
2 Sing to the Lord with joy all the earth.
Give thanks for all his love and faithfulness.
Let instruments play! Let ev’ry voice sing!
Creation resound! Praise Jesus our King!
