2. To God sing, bless his name, shew stillhis saving health abroad.

3. Among the heathen nationshis glory do declare;And unto all the people shewhis works that wondrous are.

4. For great's the Lord,and greatly he is to be magnify'd;Yea, worthy to be fear'd is heabove all gods beside.

5. For all the gods are idols dumb,which blinded nations fear;But our God is the Lord, by whomthe heav'ns created were.

6. Great honour is before his face,and majesty divine;Strength is within his holy place,and there doth beauty shine.

7. Do ye ascribe unto the Lord,of people ev'ry tribe,Glory do ye unto the Lord,and mighty pow'r ascribe.

8. Give ye the glory to the Lordthat to his name is due;Come ye into his courts, and bringan offering with you.

9. In beauty of his holiness,O do the Lord adore;Likewise let all the earth throughouttremble his face before.

10. Among the heathen say, God reigns;the world shall stedfastlyBe fix'd from moving; he shall judgethe people righteously.

11. Let heav'ns be glad before the Lord,and let the earth rejoice;Let seas, and all that is therein,cry out, and make a noise.

12. Let fields rejoice, and ev'ry thingthat springeth of the earth:Then woods and ev'ry tree shall singwith gladness and with mirth
