O come, let us sing unto the Lord; *

let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *

and show ourselves glad in him with psalms.

For the Lord is a great God *

and a great King above all gods.

In his hand are all the depths of the earth *

and the heights of the hills are his also.

The sea is his, for he made it, *

and his hands prepared the dry land.

O come, let us worship and fall down, *

and kneel before the Lord our Maker.

For he is our God, *

and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

Today, if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts *

as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness,

When your fathers tested me, *

and put me to the proof, though they had seen my works.

Forty years long was I grieved with this generation and said, *

“It is a people that err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways,”

Of whom I swore in my wrath *

that they should not enter into my rest.

O sing unto the Lord a new song; *

sing unto the Lord, all the whole earth.

Sing unto the Lord and praise his Name; *

tell of his salvation from day to day.

Declare his honor to the nations, *

and his wonders to all peoples.

For the Lord is great, and highly to be praised; *

he is more to be feared than all gods.

As for all the gods of the nations, they are but idols; *

but it is the Lord who made the heavens.

Glory and majesty are before him; *

power and honor are in his sanctuary.

Ascribe unto the Lord, O you families of the peoples, *

ascribe unto the Lord worship and power.

Ascribe unto the Lord the honor due unto his Name; *

bring offerings and come into his courts.

O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; *

let the whole earth stand in awe of him.

Tell it out among the nations, “The Lord is King; *

it is he who has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved; he shall judge the peoples righteously.”

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; *

let the sea make a noise, and all that is therein.

Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it; *

then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice before the Lord.

For he comes, for he comes to judge the earth, *

and with righteousness to judge the world, and the peoples with his truth.
