A Call to Worship the Lord the Righteous Judge.
1 aSing to the Lord a bnew song;Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
cProclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
3 Tell of dHis glory among the nations,
His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.
4 For egreat is the Lord, and fgreatly to be praised;
He is to be gfeared habove all gods.
5 For iall the gods of the peoples are ▼
▼Or non-existent things
idols,But kthe Lord made the heavens.
6 lSplendor and majesty are before Him,
Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

13 Before the Lord, ahfor He is coming,
For He is coming to judge the earth.
aiHe will judge the world in righteousness,
And the peoples in His faithfulness.
