singing to the Lord

Sing to the Lord, all the earth,

announce his salvation, day after day.

Tell his glory among the nations;

among all peoples, his wondrous deeds.

For great is the Lord and highly to be praised;

and awesome is he, beyond all gods.

For all the gods of the nations are things of nought,

but the Lord made the heavens.

Splendor and majesty go before him;

praise and joy are in his holy place.

Give to the Lord, you families of nations,

give to the Lord glory and praise;

Give to the Lord the glory due his name!

Bring gifts, and enter his presence;

worship the Lord in holy attire.
