Worship in the Splendor of Holiness (PSA 96:1-13)

[96:1] Oh sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth!

[96:2] Sing to the Lord, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day.

[96:3] Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!

[96:4] For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; he is to be feared above all gods.

[96:5] For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

[96:6] Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

[96:7] Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the peoples, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength!

[96:8] Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering, and come into his courts!

[96:9] Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness; tremble before him, all the earth!

[96:10] Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns! Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.”

[96:11] Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

[96:12] let the field exult, and everything in it! Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy

[96:13] before the Lord, for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness, and the peoples in his faithfulness.
