Refrain:    The Lord has made known his salvation.

1    Sing to the Lord a new song,  ♦

for he has done marvellous things.

2    His own right hand and his holy arm  ♦

have won for him the victory.

3    The Lord has made known his salvation;  ♦

his deliverance has he openly shown in the sight of the nations.

4    He has remembered his mercy and faithfulness

towards the house of Israel,  ♦

and all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. [R]

5    Sound praises to the Lord, all the earth;  ♦

break into singing and make music.

6    Make music to the Lord with the lyre,  ♦

with the lyre and the voice of melody.

7    With trumpets and the sound of the horn  ♦

sound praises before the Lord, the King. [R]

8    Let the sea thunder and all that fills it,  ♦

the world and all that dwell upon it.

9    Let the rivers clap their hands  ♦

and let the hills ring out together before the Lord,

for he comes to judge the earth.

10  In righteousness shall he judge the world  ♦

and the peoples with equity.

Refrain:    The Lord has made known his salvation.

Lord God, just and true,

you make your salvation known in the sight of the nations;

tune the song of our hearts to the music of creation

as you come among us to judge the earth;

through our Saviour Jesus Christ.
