Long ago and far away the world was a silent place People had no songs to sing no smile upon their face Then one day a voice was heard repeating a melody Other voices soon joined in setting the spirit free
Thank God for music, thank God for music Thank God for music, rhythm and harmony
Everyday in every land the sound and the music move Spread it's magic to every heart and the whole world too Oh the music can touch you deep and bring out the love in you Take you to that special place and make all your dreams come true
Thank God for music, thank God for music Thank God for music, rhythm and harmony
(Chant) Now the sound is everywhere the rhythm of life in you Inspiration to love and share and lighten up the mood Sing about the simple things sing a song of love Satisfy your heart's desire raise your voices up
