Sing, O Sing [Dan Schutte]





1. Sing, O sing, like the wind and sea; let music fill the skies!
Lift your voice like the thund’ring waves: let songs of praise arise!
Praise God with drums and dancing! Praise God with flute and horn!
Blessed be our God, Mighty Lord of all!

2. Night and day we announce your praise; O Lord of ev'ry land,
Give you thanks for the sun and stars, all blessings of your hand.
Helper of all who labor, Comfort to all who mourn.
Praise to you, O God, Mighty Lord of all!

3. Mighty Master of raging storm; we kneel before your power.
Loving Lord of the faithful rain, that makes the desert flower.
Giver of song and sorrow, Grower of every seed.
Praise to you, O God, Mighty Lord of all!

4. Hear us, Lord of the sun and moon; we bless you night and day.
Guide us, Lord, as we journey home; be with us on our way.
Spirit of field and forest, Power of snow and rain.
Praise to you, O God, Mighty Lord of all!

5. Make us shine like stars of night; we bless your holy name!
Make our love like a blazing light; O set our hearts aflame!
Master of dawn and darkness, Maker of shining star.
Praise to you, O God, Mighty Lord of all!
