We should not allow others to silence us from shouting praise and joy to the Lord even though they prefer silence (or that they prefer their tradition of less lively worship not knowing or ignoring what was written in the Holy Bible). The song Shout to the Lord reflects that especially with the lyrics Praise to the King, Mountains bow down, And the seas will roar, At the sound of Your Name.Īs Christians who are faithful (not religious, not idolatrous and not trapped by relics, traditions and rituals) and peaceful thanks to Jesus’ redemption, we have every reason to be very lively in worshiping the Lord. For every victory of the Lord, we have real reasons to celebrate with singing and shouting joy. We acknowledge to the Lord not by merely thanking Him but praising Him with happiness, thankfulness and honor. O forest, and every tree in it! For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, And glorified Himself in Israel.Īs children of God, we should always acknowledge His works on overcoming evil, saving more unsaved and lost souls. Sing, O heavens, for the LORD has done it! Shout, you lower parts of the earth Break forth into singing, you mountains. As Christians who got saved by the Lord, we no longer live in darkness for we are already citizens of His kingdom, the kingdom of light! We are supposed to be lively spiritually and even while living in the flesh. We are supposed to be strong, happy and excited to praise God always and this is reflected in the line I sing for joy in the song.

Because we are so occupied with daily living, duties and social responsibilities, we Christians sometimes forget to approach the Lord with high energy, deep appreciation and strong confidence. That holy scripture emphasizes that we the creations of God (certainly not idols) are welcome to enter His presence express ourselves to Him with dynamic praise which includes happiness, singing, thanksgiving, worshiping and honoring Him. For the LORD is good His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures all generations. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Know that the LORD, He is God It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands! Serve the LORD with gladness Come before His presence with singing. There is basis for the song within the Holy Bible. The next section in the lyrics has Never cease to worship You while the next section has Shout to the Lord, All the earth let us sing as powerful lines.

Of course, Jesus went on to return back to life and spent some time with His believers before ascending to Heaven with the promise of returning to us.īack to the song, there are powerful lines such as All of my days, I want to praise in the opening. The lyrics opened with references to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who was sent by God to us here on Earth (refer to John 3: 16) and paid the price for our redemption. Now let’s take a look at the lyrics of this famously powerful Christian song.Īs seen in the above lyrics, Shout to the Lord is not about merely shouting to Him but rather praising Him out loud not for a moment but with a will to keep praising without ever giving up. Shout to the Lord is sung by millions of churchgoers every week and is unsurprisingly the favorite of many Christian churches for Sunday worship.

It is a very beautiful song that always succeeds in making people realize their true purpose under God which leads them to Him, motivates them to praise and thank Him more and ultimately move on with Christian living. The song described is none other than Shout to the Lord, released in 1993 by Hillsong as part of their album Simply Worship with words and music done by Darlene Zschech. For many, it is the one song that defined pastor Darlene Zschech’s place in the world under the eyes of God for it is undeniable that it helped lead people to Him. It is one of the most popular Christian praise and worship songs of all time in the whole world.
