Composer’s Notes
This piece was written in 1996 for the Children’s Choir that I founded, Cantate Domino. This piece has been recorded by several Mexican choirs and has been sung by almost all of the children’s choirs in México. It was also used as an anthem for the choral events at the Inmaculada Concepción in the city of Morelia, Michoacán.

Text
Cantad al Señor porque es grande,
Cantad al Señor, porque es bueno,
Cantad, cantad, cantad, cantad al Señor.
Coros celestes cantad alabanzas
Venid entonemos un cántico nuevo
al Señor, al Señor.
Mientras tambores, trompetas y címbalos
Van resonando al compás de una misma cancíon.
Aleluya, aleluya. (alt. Hosanna, Gloria al señor.)
-Jésus López Moreno
Sing to the Lord for He is great,
Sing to the Lord for He is good.
Sing, sing, sing, sing to the Lord.
Celestial choirs sing praise.
Come let us sing in harmony
A new song to the Lord.
While drums, trumpets and cymbals
Resound to the beat of one same song.
Hallelujah, hallelujah (alt. Glory to the Lord.)
