Cry out and shout by Philip P. Bliss — Lyrics
Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.
Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.
Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments.

About Cry out and shout
The words of this anthem, drawn from Isaiah, paint a picture of exultation and confidence in Zion, the city of God. The text calls for joyous celebration, urging inhabitants to proclaim the greatness of the Holy One of Israel and to take stock of Zion's strength and beauty. The composer Philip P. Bliss sets this jubilant message for SATB choir in English. The music aims to capture the vibrant energy and unwavering faith expressed in the scriptures, creating a powerful and uplifting declaration for the choir and congregation.
