O Come (95)

`Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a / new~ song,

his `praise in the assembly / of the faithful.

Let `Israel rejoice in him who / made~ them.

`Let the children of Zion be joyful / in their King.

`Let them praise his name_ / in the dance!

`Let them sing_ praises to him with_ tambou / rine and harp!

`For the LORD takes pleasure / in his people.

He `crowns the humble / with salvation.

(Ref)

`Let the faith_ ful rejoice_ / in this honor.

`Let them sing for joy_ / on their beds.

`May the high_ praises of_ God be / in their mouths,

`and a two-edg’d sword_ / in their hand,

to `execute_ vengeance / on the nations,

and `punishments_ / on the peoples;

to `bind their / kings with chains,

`and their nobles with_ fetters / of~ iron; +

to `execute on them the / written judgment.

`All his faithful people / have this honor. • `Halle / lu~ jah!
