Then Will The Very Rocks Cry Out (If We Keep Our Voices Silent)
Words and Music: Mark Hayes
Luke 19:37-40
37 Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, 38 saying:
“‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the LORD!’
Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!”
39 And some of the Pharisees called to Him from the crowd, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.”
40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
From the corners of creation come the people of the Living God.
Every tongue and every nation gather now to praise the Lord.
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
From a world of tribulation, come and let your voice be raised.
Join us now in congregation. Let the Living God be praised.
Alleluia! alleluia! unto Him we offer praise.
Alleluia! alleluia! this song of joy to him we raise.
Alleluia! alleluia! iIn the heavens angels sing.
Alleluia! alleluia! give glory to the most high King!
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout.
If we fail to praise you, Father, then will the very rocks cry out!
Alleluia! alleluia, Amen!
