I remember that night, under starry skies When the world felt heavy, and I just had to cry
But then I heard a whisper, lift your voice and sing So I clapped my hands together, felt the joy he brings
Oh, clap your hands, all ye people Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Oh, clap your hands, all ye nations Shout unto Elohim with a voice of joy
I think about the battles, where I felt so small When doubt surrounded me, like a shadow on the wall
But he crushed my fears, lifted me from the ground Set me up ahead of the line, where his love is found
Oh, clap your hands, all ye people Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Oh, clap your hands, all ye nations Shout unto Elohim with a voice of joy
Applause everyone, bravissimo Loud cheers as God climbs the mountain, here we go
Our rams run fast, echoing in my soul Sing songs to our King, let the praises roll
Oh, clap your hands, all ye people Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Oh, clap your hands, all ye nations Shout unto Elohim with a voice of joy
Many streets, with my friends by my side We sang of his wonders, with the world as our guide
He's stunning, he's sovereign, the King of all the earth So I'll sing out loud, declare his endless worth
Oh, clap your hands, all ye people Shout unto God with a voice of triumph
Oh, clap your hands, all ye nations Shout unto Elohim with a voice of joy
So when life gets heavy and the road feels long Remember to lift your hands and sing your best song
He's the Lord over earth with power in his hands Join me in the chorus, let's all take a stand
Oh, clap your hands, all ye people So lift your hands, let the whole world see
Here we go, our joy forever on the throne With every shout and clap, we're never alone
Praise him with your hands Praise him with your hands
