1    Sing to the Lord a new song;  ♦

sing to the Lord, all the earth.

2    Sing to the Lord and bless his name;  ♦

tell out his salvation from day to day.

3    Declare his glory among the nations  ♦

and his wonders among all peoples.

4    Honour and majesty are before him;  ♦

power and splendour are in his sanctuary.

5    Ascribe to the Lord, you families of the peoples;  ♦

ascribe to the Lord honour and strength.

6    Ascribe to the Lord the honour due to his name;  ♦

bring offerings and come into his courts.

7    O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness;  ♦

let the whole earth tremble before him.

8    Tell it out among the nations that the Lord is king.  ♦

with righteousness he will judge the world

and the peoples with his truth.

Psalm 96.1-3,6-10a,13b

All   Glory to the Father and to the Son

and to the Holy Spirit;

as it was in the beginning is now

and shall be for ever. Amen.
