A new song

Sing the LORD a new song. Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD; bless his name; declare his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his wonders among all the peoples. Because the LORD is great and very much to be praised. He's to be feared above all gods. Because all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens. Honour and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Give to the LORD, you families of the peoples. Give the LORD glory and strength. Give the LORD the glory his name deserves. Bring an offering and come into his courts. Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth. Say among the nations, 'The LORD reigns.' The world is established and cannot be moved. He'll judge the peoples righteously. Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and everything in it. Let the field be full of joy, and everything in it. Then all the trees of the forest will shout for joy Before the LORD, because he's coming — because he's coming to judge the earth. He'll judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth.

Sing the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth. Sing to the Lord. Bless his name. Tell out his salvation day after day. Tell out his glory among the nations, his wonders among all the peoples. Because the Lord is great and very much to be praised. He's to be feared above all gods. Because all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the Lord made the heavens. Honour and majesty are in front of him. Strength and beauty are in his holy place. Give to the Lord, you families of the peoples. Give the Lord glory and strength. Give the Lord the glory his name deserves. Bring an offering and come into his courts. Bow down to the Lord in the beauty of holiness. Shake in front of him, all the earth. Say among the nations: The Lord reigns. The world is set up too, so it can't be shifted. He'll judge the peoples straight. Let the heavens be glad and the earth celebrate. Let the sea roar, and everything in it. Let the field be full of joy, and everything in it. Then all the trees of the scrub will sing out in front of the Lord, because he's coming — because he's coming to judge the earth. He'll judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth.

O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people. For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods. For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens. Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary. Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts. O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth. Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof. Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
