Oh that I had a thousand voices
For the Music of Creation
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:12 Lyrics: 1 For the music of creation,
for the song your Spirit sings,
for your sound’s divine expression,
burst of joy in living things:
God, our God, the world’s composer,
hear us, echoes of your voice;
music is your art, your glory,
let the human heart rejoice!
2 Psalms and symphonies exalt you,
drum and trumpet, string and reed,
simple melodies acclaim you,
tunes that rise from deepest need,
hymns of longing and belonging,
carols from a cheerful throat,
lilt of lullaby and love song
catching heaven in a note.
3 All the voices of the ages
in transcendent chorus meet,
worship lifting up the senses,
hands that praise, and dancing feet;
over discord and division
music speaks your joy and peace,
harmony of earth and heaven,
song of God that cannot cease!

till heaven with praise is ringing.
Sun, moon, and stars, peal out a chord,
stir up the angels' singing.
Sing, wind and rain! Sing, snow and sleet!
Make music, day, night, cold and heat!
Exalt the God who made you.
2 All living things upon the earth,
green fertile hills and mountains,
sing to the God who gave you birth!
Be joyful, springs and fountains,
lithe waterlife, bright airborne birds,
wild roving beasts, tame flocks and herds!
Exalt the God who made you.
3 O men and women everywhere,
lift up a hymn of glory.
Let all who know God's steadfast care
tell out salvation's story.
No tongue be silent--sing your part,
you humble souls and meek of heart!
Exalt the God who made you. Used With Tune: MIT FREUDEN ZART Text Sources: Benedicite, para.
