1 Come, let us sing before the Lord
New songs of praise with sweet accord,
For wonders great by Him are done,
His mighty arm has vict'ry won.
2 The great salvation of our God
Is seen through all the earth abroad;
Before the nations; wond'ring sight
He has revealed His truth and right.
3 He called to mind the truth and grace
Bestowed upon His chosen race,
And unto earth's remotest bound
Glad tidings of salvation sound.
4 All lands, to God lift up your voice,
Sing praise to Him, with shouts rejoice;
With voice of joy and loud acclaim
Let all unite and praise His Name.
5 Praise ye the Lord with harp and song,
With voice of psalms His praise prolong;
In swelling chorus gladly sing
And shout before the Lord the King.
6 Let earth be glad, let ocean roar,
And praises sound from shore to shore;
Let floods and hills with glad accord
Show forth their joy before the Lord.
7 For lo, He comes; at His command
All nations shall in judgment stand;
In justice robed, and throned in light,
The Lord shall judge, dispensing right.
The Psalter: with responsive readings, 1912
