Ted Pearce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let there be love, let there be joy,
Let there be truth, let all the world sing hallelujah

Praise Him all of Zion, let Judah sing His name
Clap your hands Jerusalem, exalt His mighty ways
Behold and bless the Lord, shout unto Him with joy
Come before His throne let all of Israel rejoice
Lift up your hands and sing out His name
Open up your heart to the One who was slain
Worthy is the Lamb and perfect are His ways
Wisdom, strength and honor, glory and blessing to His name





Great are the things you've done, the Lord of heavens armies
We magnify your name for you alone are holy
