I have heard the first hymn in the Bible was sung by Moses and the children of Israel after they crossed the Red Sea and were saved from their enemies.  Exodus 15:20 says Miriam took the timbrel in her hand and all the women followed her with timbrels and dance.

The video shows this verse being accompanied by dance.  The tune isa lively Israeli folk melody.  How I like Jewish music!  The Psalms oftenshows different expressions of praise.

An optional stanza was added to refer to the resurrection:

I will sing unto the Lord,

for He has triumphed gloriously:

the grave is empty.  Won't you come and see?  Repeat.

The Lord, my God, my strength and song,

has now become my victory.  Repeat.

The Lord is God, and I will praise Him,

my Father's God, and I will exalt Him.  Repeat.
