T-Bone - Alabemos Lyrics
Lyrics
Alabemos con panderos
Alabemos con salterio
Alabemos todos juntos
Alabemos alabemos
Alabemos con trompetas
Alabemos con las flautas
Alabemos con las palmas
Alabemos alabemos
Levantemos manos santas
Celebremos con la danza
Que se escuche la alabo
Alabemos alabemos
Te alabamos Dios
Te alabemos Dios

Marcos Witt - «Alabemos» Feat. T-Bone (Official Lyric Video)
Meaning & Inspiration
Marcos Witt's 2014 release, "Alabemos," featuring the distinctive voice of T-Bone, is a powerful testament to the act of praise, inviting listeners into a vibrant expression of worship. The song centers on the core biblical command to exalt God, echoing sentiments found throughout Scripture that call for joyous celebration and adoration. Its underlying message is one of unreserved gratitude and a recognition of God's sovereignty, a theme woven through the fabric of both the Old and New Testaments. The collaborative effort between Witt, a seasoned worship leader, and T-Bone, known for his dynamic delivery, creates an invigorating anthem that transcends mere musicality. The song’s very title, "Alabemos," which translates to "Let Us Praise," immediately sets the tone, drawing a direct parallel to verses like Psalm 150:6, which implores, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord." This call to praise isn't presented as an obligation, but rather as a natural outflow of a life lived in recognition of God's goodness, much like the psalmist declaring in Psalm 9:1, "I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds." The lyrical content, while focusing on the act of glorifying God, implicitly touches upon the reasons for such praise – His mighty acts, His faithfulness, and His boundless love. One can readily see parallels to the outpouring of praise from figures like David, who, as recorded in 2 Samuel 6:14, "danced before the Lord with all his might," or the early church in Acts 2:46-47, where believers "were continually glad new with thankful hearts." "Alabemos" serves as a contemporary rendition of these timeless expressions of devotion, encouraging believers to lift their voices and hearts in a unified declaration of God's worth. The song’s strength lies not just in its evangelical message, but in its ability to stir a genuine desire within the listener to participate in this act of worship, reminding us that praise is a fundamental aspect of our relationship with the divine, a continuous offering that glorifies Him and strengthens our own spiritual walk, as the Apostle Paul encourages in 1 Thessalonians 5:18, "give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
