Cantate Domino

1    O sing unto the Lord a new song :

for he hath done marvellous things.

2    With his own right hand, and with his holy arm :

hath he gotten himself the victory.

3    The Lord declared his salvation :

his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.

4    He hath remembered his mercy and truth

    toward the house of Israel :

and all the ends of the world have seen the salvation of our God.

5    Shew yourselves joyful unto the Lord, all ye lands :

sing, rejoice, and give thanks.

6    Praise the Lord upon the harp :

sing to the harp with a psalm of thanksgiving.

7    With trumpets also and shawms :

O shew yourselves joyful before the Lord the King.

8    Let the sea make a noise, and all that therein is :

the round world, and they that dwell therein.

9    Let the floods clap their hands,

    and let the hills be joyful together before the Lord :

for he cometh to judge the earth.

10  With righteousness shall he judge the world :

and the people with equity.

Psalm 98

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son :

and to the Holy Ghost;

as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be :

world without end. Amen.
