A New Version of the Psalms of David‎#87

Text:

Clap Hands, all People, shout to God

1. Clap Hands, all People, shout to God ;
With Voice of Triumph to him sing,
2. For God, most high, is terrible;
O'er all the Earth, he's a great King.

3. He makes the People to submit;
And Nations at our Feet couch down
4. Our Heritage, for us, he chose;
His loved Jacob's glorious Crown.

5. God is ascended with a Shout;
Jehovah with the Trumpet's Layes.
6. Sing Praises to our God, Praise sing;
Sing Praises to our King, sing Praise.
7. For God, of all the Earth, is King;
Your deepest Skill in Praise be shown.
8. God reigneth over heathen Lands;
God sits upon his holy Throne.

9. Princes of Nations freely join,
To serve the God of Abraham;
For Shields of th' Earth to God belong,
Exalted greatly is his Name.
