Sing to the LORD a new song!

Sing to the LORD, all the earth.

Sing to the LORD, bless His name,

Bring tidings every day of His rescue.

Recount among the nations His glory,

among all the peoples His wonders.

For great is the LORD and most praised,

fearsome is He over all the gods.

For all gods of the peoples are ungods,

but the LORD has made the heavens.

Greatness and grandeur before Him,

strength and splendor in His sanctuary.

Grant to the LORD, O families of peoples,

grant to the LORD glory and strength.

Grant to the LORD His name’s glory,

bear tribute and come to His courts.

Bow to the LORD in sacred grandeur;

quake before Him, all the earth.

Say among the nations: The LORD reigns.

Yes, the world stands firm, will not shake.

He metes out justice to peoples righteously.

Let the heavens rejoice and the earth exult,

let the sea and its fullness thunder.

Let the field be glad and all that is in it,

then shall all the trees of the forest gladly sing

before the LORD, for He comes,

He comes to judge the earth.

He judges the world in justice

and peoples in His faithfulness.
