LYRICS:
O sing unto the Lord a new song: for he hath done marvellous things.
With his own right hand, and with his holy arm: hath he gotten himself the victory.
The Lord declared his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the
heathen.
He hath remembered his mercy and truth toward the house of Israel: and all the ends of the
world have seen the salvation of our God.
Come shew yourselves joyful unto the Lord, all ye lands: sing, rejoice and give thanks.
Praise the Lord upon the harp: sing to the harp with a psalm of thanksgiving.
With trumpets also, and shawms: O shew yourselves joyful before the Lord the King.
Let the sea make a noise, and all that therein is: the round world and they that dwell
therein.
Let the floods clap their hands, and let the hills be joyful together before the Lord: for
he is come to judge the earth.
(from Psalm 98)
O Praise the Lord of Heaven
