Holy is He (Psalms 96-99)

Here is a song I have been working on for about a year or so. I have changed both the melody and the chord progression multiple times. So I am not sure if this will be the keeper arrangement... but for now here is the song.

To download or stream...

Chord chart (pdf)

The song is based on  selections from Psalms 96-99

Some of the goals I set out to accomplish lyrically (because these seemed to be the themes throughout those 4 Psalms) were...

  • probably the key theme was the correct response of doxology flowing from theology (ex. "Holy is He... let the people tremble")

  • another goal was the remembrance of how God has worked throughout history (and how we should look to that often for both encouragement and conviction)

  • and lastly, how remembering God's faithfulness both throughout history and in our everyday life should produce a desire to tell of His faithfulness to the nations
