God Gives His Children a Song

From the dawning of all creation

The heavens resounded in song

The angels cried holy, holy, holy

In harmony around the great white Throne

But then Adam fell in the garden

Old Satan thought He'd won the victory

Then Jesus came all the way from glory

Just to give us a reason to sing

Sing hallelujah

He's the joy of my salvation

Hallelujah, glory to the Holy One

Hallelujah, every tongue and

Every nation

My God gives His children a song

God gives His children a song

In a dark and a cavernous prison

There's no place to hide or to run

Paul and Silas were jailed without reason

See no evil deeds these men had done

Yet they lifted their voices in praises

The chains that they wore came undone

For God sent a strong and mighty shaking

There's victory when you sing a song

When you're burdened and

Filled up with sadness

You're longing to find sweet relief

Just remember there's power in our praises

Every devil in hell's got to flee

I'm singing, I'm singing

Singing, I'm singing

Singing, I'm singing

Singing, I'm singing

I'm shouting, I'm shouting

Shouting, I'm shouting

I'm shouting, I'm shouting

I'm shouting, I'm shouting

I'm dancing, I'm dancing

Dancing, I'm dancing

Dancing, I'm dancing

Dancing, I'm dancing

God gives His children a song

I'm singing

I'm shouting

I'm dancing

God gives His children a song
