Extended data
The lyrics of "Clap your hands" come from the first section of Psalm 47, "Clap your hands, people", which is to praise the happiness that the Lord has given to all beings. Later, when I returned to Japan, I filled in the lyrics and was immediately sung in a circle of friends. Later, it was heard by the late famous Japanese singer Sakamoto Kei, and was re-arranged by composer Akio Izumi. Finally, it was recorded, published in May 1964 and then spread all over Japan.
At first, because the author was unknown, the early "lyricists and songwriters" all wrote "unknown". Later, I learned that the lyricist was Li Kimura, so all the later works were written in Kimura's name. Because this song has such a great influence in Japan, it is often heard on trains, baseball games and football games.
