Give Glory to the LORD

1Sing a new song to the LORD!

Sing to the LORD, all the earth!

2Sing to the LORD!

Bless his name!

Proclaim his deliverance every day!

3Declare his glory among the nations

and his awesome deeds among all the peoples!

4For the LORD is great,

and greatly to be praised;

he is awesome above all gods.

5For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,

but the LORD made the heavens.

6Splendor and majesty are before him;

might and beauty are in his sanctuary.

7Ascribe to the LORD, you families of peoples,

ascribe to the LORD glory and strength!

8Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name,

bring an offering and enter his courts!

9Worship the LORD in holy splendor;

tremble before him, all the earth.

10Declare among the nations, “The LORD reigns!”

Indeed, he established the world so that it will not falter.

He will judge people fairly.

11The heavens will be glad

and the earth will rejoice;

even the sea and everything that fills it will roar.a

12The field and all that is in it will rejoice;

then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

13in the LORD’s presence,

because he is coming;

indeed, he will come to judge the earth.

He will judge the world fairly

and its people reliably.
