When in Our Music God Is Glorified

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 10.10.10 with refrain Appears in 86 hymnals Topics: The Church at Worship Special Days, Seasons, Occasions: Praise of God through Music Lyrics: 1 When, in our music, God is glorified, and adoration leaves no room for pride, it is as though the whole creation cried Hallelujah! 2 How often, making music, we have found a new dimension in the world of sound, as worship moved us to a more profound Hallelujah! 3 So has the church in liturgy and song, in faith and love, through centuries of wrong, borne witness to the truth in every tongue, Hallelujah! 4 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: Hallelujah! 5 Let every instrument be tuned for praise! Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise! And may God give us faith to sing always Hallelujah!
