Kenaniah of the Levites appointed by the king To teach the songs of Zion, to lead them as they sing Your song is not forgotten, we hear it in our souls Let it burn and burn within us And fan the sacred coals Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we will sing your ancient song Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we will sing it loud and strong Gathered for the battle, Kenaniah led the way As the singers closely followed him, they all began to pray The musicians all assembled, Kenaniah gave the word Through the raging battle zone, the anthem could be heard Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we will never let it die Kenaniah, Kenaniah, we must lift it to the sky Sing unto Jehovah of His wondrous ways Sing a song of triumph, sing a victory song And in the cloud of witnesses, Kenaniah sings along Kenaniah, Kenaniah, through the ages it will ring Kenaniah, Kenaniah, to Jehovah we will sing
