How about the Israeli song that was popular maybe 15 years ago -- ³Todah².
By Uzi Chitman . It¹s very upbeat, and while it¹s in Hebrew, there are any
number of singable English translations that have been written for it.

Also, the old stand-up, sit-down song (good for kids and adults alike) --
Hallelu/Hodu LaShem.

Hope all¹s well!
