Lyrics
The lyrics are copyright so cannot be reproduced here. But they are currently available on this website. A rough outline is:Let the trumpets blast, let the cymbals crash, let the dancing begin ...
Praise Him with blasts of the trumpet. ... Jesus is life!
Praise Him with clashing cymbals, ....Jesus is Life!
(Refrain)
Orchards and forests, mountains and hills,
Birds and living creatures, dance in praise of His name!
Praise Him with clashing cymbals, ...Jesus is Life!
Old men, and children too. ... Jesus is Life!
Everlasting Life!
