Let us come before his face with praises; and make melody with holy songs.
Come into his doors with joy, and into his house with praise; give him honour, blessing his name.
Joining with one another in holy songs of praise and of the Spirit, using your voice in songs and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Let your voice be sounding in songs and melody; let all your thoughts be of the wonder of his works.
With what am I to come before the Lord and go with bent head before the high God? am I to come before him with burned offerings, with young oxen a year old?
Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.
Up! Lord, come out against him, make him low, with your sword be my saviour from the evil-doer.
Is anyone among you in trouble? let him say prayers. Is anyone glad? let him make a song of praise.
The meeting of the nations will be round you; take your seat, then, over them, on high.
Take up the melody, playing on an instrument of music, even on corded instruments.
Let all the earth send out a glad cry to the Lord; sounding with a loud voice, and praising him with songs of joy.
