Psalm 96 O Sing a New Song to The Lord

1.  O sing a new song to the Lord,
    Sing, all the earth and bless that Name;
    From day to day God's praise record,
    The Lord's redeeming grace proclaim.

2.  Tell all the world God's wondrous ways;
    Tell heathen nations far and near;
    Great is the Lord, and great God's praise;
    The Lord alone let nations fear.

3.  The heathen gods are idols vain;
    The shining heavens the Lord supports;
    Both light and honor lead the train,
    While strength and beauty fill the courts.

4.  Let every tongue and every tribe
    Give to the Lord due praise and sing;
    All glory unto God ascribe,
    Come, throng the courts, and offerings bring.
    Alleluia!
