Let Us Sing to Him Praise



Let us sing full of praise
And give thanks unto His name
Ever to walk in His ways
Through Light that's ours to gain

Let us crowd out evil
And replace it with good
For God will prevail
Through His grace and priesthood

Let us make a loud noise
Unto the Lord and the earth
Bursting forth to rejoice
As enthusiasm gives birth!

With melody of the heart
We offer up but sweet thanks
As the Spirit more imparts
Midst angels in our ranks

Let spiritual songs of the past
Be rejuvenated
For praise does ever last
Heavenly designated

Let us find power and protection
Through the church music we sing
And proclaim scripture's citations
Of what our voices might bring

Elder Russell M. Nelson
the power and protection of worthy music
Ensign, December 2009,

"make a joyful noise unto the lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise" Psalm 98:4

"in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in [our] heart to the Lord; Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ" Ephesians 5:19-20
