Sing to the LORD, All the Earth

Dawn from a flat rooftop in the City of David: a single Levite in a white linen robe, seen from behind with a small lyre, looks east across the Kidron valley and the Mount of Olives to range after range of hills under a pale gold sky.

Sing to the LORD a new song;

sing to the LORD, all the earth.

Sing to the LORD, bless His name;

proclaim His salvation day after day.

Declare His glory among the nations,

His wonders among all peoples.

Declare His glory among the nations

Small companies of people in the dress of different nations walking up a long road through the hills, carrying baskets and lambs toward a far ridge.

Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations,

ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name;

bring an offering and enter His courts.

Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness;

tremble before Him, all the earth.

Reflect

Tell one person

The nations start with someone you know. Who is one person you could tell what God has done, and what would you say?

Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!”

The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved;

He will judge the peoples with equity.
