For God has done marvelous things
Let us celebrate the God of our faith. Let us live the faith of our ancestors.
Tell the world! Throw a party!
For God has done marvelous things
Crank up the music! Bring in the dancing! Let your voice do the praising and your feet do the testifying.
For God has done marvelous things
The whole earth praises our God! The sea can’t keep quiet. The rivers applaud God’s greatness, and the mountains shout for joy!
For God has done marvelous things
The safest place to be is in the arms of our loving God. For, God sees all. God knows all and God bring justice to all!
For God has done marvelous things
