Come, see the mighty works of the Lord, Who makes wars cease to the end of the earth He snaps the bow, and breaks the spear, And burns up the chariots with fire. "Be still, and know that I am God, Exalted over the nations, exalted on earth." The Lord of hosts is with us, The God of Jacob is our refuge. THE JOY OF WORSHIPPING GOD Oh come, let us sing to the Lord, Let us shout to the Rock who saves us, Let us come before him with thanksgiving, Let us sing to him joyful songs; For the Lord is indeed a great God, A great King above all gods, In whose hand are the depths of the earth, The heights of the mountains are his, The sea is his, for he made it, And his hands prepared the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down, Let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker; For he is the Lord our God, And we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth, Serve the Lord with gladness, Come into his presence with singing, Know that the Lord is God, He has made us and we are his, His people, the flock that he tends. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, His courts with songs of rejoicing, Give thanks to him, praise his name, He is good, his kindness eternal, And his faithfulness unto all generations. WHAT GOD ASKS OF THOSE WHO WORSHIP HIM O Lord, who may be a guest in thy tent? Who may dwell on thy holy hill? He who lives blamelessly and does right, And speaks the truth in his heart, Who utters no slander with his tongue, Who does no wrong to his friend, Who makes no charge against his neighbor; In whose sight the vile are despised, But he honors those who revere the Lord. He keeps his oath at all costs, His money he puts not out to usury, And cannot be bribed to injure the innocent. He who does this can never be moved. A CALL TO PRAISE GOD Oh, sing to the Lord a new song; Sing to the Lord, all the earth, Sing to the Lord, praise his name, Proclaim his salvation each day; Tell his glory among the heathen, His wonders among all peoples. God is great, and worthy of praise, Above all gods should he be revered, For all the gods of the peoples are idols, But it is the Lord who made the heavens. Honor and majesty are in his presence, Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
