Tehillah ~ A New Song Rising

Biblical meaning of Tehillah- a spontaneous song of praise that rises from a heart transformed by God's goodness. Tehillah (תְּהִלָּה) is a Hebrew word that means praise, song of praise, or adoration directed toward God. It comes from the Hebrew root halal (to praise, celebrate, or glorify). The title of the biblical book of Psalms in Hebrew is Tehillim, meaning "Praises." Tehillah - A New Song Rising Before the morning breaks the night, Before the sun begins to shine, A song is waking deep in me, A melody of liberty. I can't keep silent, can't stand still, Your love has conquered all my will. What You've written on my heart Is overflowing from the start. Not from duty, not from fear, But because I know You're here. Tehillah, Tehillah, A song that's rising from my soul. Tehillah, Tehillah, You're the One who makes me whole. Every breath and every beat, Lay my worship at Your feet. Tehillah, Tehillah, Lord, my heart belongs to You. When the valleys hide the way, Still I'll lift a song of praise. When the mountains touch the sky, Still Your mercy lifts me high. You've been faithful all my days, You've carried me through every phase. So let the rivers of Your grace Become the anthem that I raise. Not rehearsed or forced to be, Just Your Spirit singing through me. Tehillah, Tehillah, A song that's rising from my soul. Tehillah, Tehillah, You're the One who makes me whole. Every breath and every beat, Lay my worship at Your feet. Tehillah, Tehillah, Lord, my heart belongs to You. You're my morning, You're my song, You have held me all along. In the laughter, in the tears, You've been faithful through the years. Let the heavens hear me say, I will bless Your holy name. As long as my heart has breath, I will sing till my last day. Tehillah, Tehillah, Let a new song fill the earth. Tehillah, Tehillah, Tell the story of Your worth. Every nation, every tongue, Join the everlasting song. Tehillah, Tehillah, King of glory, You are worthy! Tehillah... A song You placed inside of me. Tehillah... Forever, Lord, my melody.
