William Murphy's "The Sound" is a passionate worship song that encourages believers to lift their voices in praise as a spiritual weapon for breakthrough. Drawing on biblical imagery from Jericho and the Philippian jail, the lyrics portray praise as a powerful sound that moves God to act on behalf of His people. The song emphasizes persistent worship until breakthrough comes, and it celebrates the concept of Jubilee, where freedom and restoration are released. Murphy's energetic delivery and the song's declarative style make it a stirring anthem for personal and corporate deliverance, reminding listeners that their cries and praises are heard by God.

Here we go
Listen
There is a sound that you are waiting to hear
(The sound) that you will use
To break your people through
So we lift our voices in praise
Praise is what we do
And we'll sing unto you Lord
Until you break us through
It's the sound that you heard at Jericho
It's the sound that you heard in that Philippian jail
It's the sound that you will use to set your people free
There is a sound that tells me what you need
(The sound) that sound that draws me to where you are
Tells me what you're ready for
So we lift our voices in praise
Praise is what I do
And we'll sing unto you Lord
Until you break us through
It's the sound that you heard at Jericho
It's the sound that you heard in that Philippian jail
It's the sound that you will use to set your people free
It's the sound that you heard (when I was going through)
It's the sound that you heard (when I was crying out for you)
It's the sound that you will use to set your people free
It's the sound of Jubilee, set your people free
Release my destiny, I want it all back
It's the sound of Jubilee, set your people free
Release my destiny, I want it all back
It's the sound of Jubilee, set your people free
Release my destiny, I want it all back
Set your people free
Set your people free
Set your people free
Set your people free
I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
I want it all
Set your people free
