Lyrics:

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 its 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

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

Thank God for music
Thank God for music
Thank God for music
Rhythm and harmony

Thank God for music
Thank God for music
Thank God for music
Rhythm and harmony
