Psalm 96

David Koyzis ©

  1. Sing to the Lord, O sing a new song!
    Sing, all the earth, and praise the Lord's name!
    Tell his salvation day to day;
    Let all the world his glories know;
    His marvels tell among the peoples.
  2. Great is the Lord and worthy of praise.
    Above all gods he is to be feared;
    For idol gods are without power.
    The skies were made by God alone;
    Splendor and glory are before him.
  3. Give to the Lord, you clans of the earth--
    Our Lord who reigns in glory and power--
    Give him the honor due his name.
    Bring your oblation to his throne.
    O earth, before his presence tremble.
  4. The Lord is King! Tell every nation!
    He made the earth; it cannot be moved.
    His justice flows to all the earth.
    Let heav'n rejoice, the earth be glad!
    Let ocean thunder forth his praises!
  5. Let all the fields exult in their Lord!
    Let all the woodlands sing out his praise!
    Sing to the Lord, for he will come
    To judge the world with equity
    And every nation with his justice.
