Psalm 33

1
Let the godly sing for joy to the Lord;
it is fitting for the pure to praise him.
2
Praise the Lord with melodies on the lyre;
make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.
3
Sing a new song of praise to him;
play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.
4
For the word of the Lord holds true,
and we can trust everything he does.
5
He loves whatever is just and good;
the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth.

6
The Lord merely spoke,
and the heavens were created.
He breathed the word,
and all the stars were born.
7
He assigned the sea its boundaries
and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
8
Let the whole world fear the Lord,
and let everyone stand in awe of him.
9
For when he spoke, the world began!
It appeared at his command.

10
The Lord frustrates the plans of the nations
and thwarts all their schemes.
11
But the Lord’s plans stand firm forever;
his intentions can never be shaken.

12
What joy for the nation whose God is the Lord,
whose people he has chosen as his inheritance.

13
The Lord looks down from heaven
and sees the whole human race.
14
From his throne he observes
all who live on the earth.
15
He made their hearts,
so he understands everything they do.
16
The best-equipped army cannot save a king,
nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.
17
Don’t count on your warhorse to give you victory—
for all its strength, it cannot save you.

18
But the Lord watches over those who fear him,
those who rely on his unfailing love.
19
He rescues them from death
and keeps them alive in times of famine.

20
We put our hope in the Lord.
He is our help and our shield.
21
In him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name.
22
Let your unfailing love surround us, Lord,
for our hope is in you alone.

Lyrics:
[verse 1]
Praise the Lord
With melodies on the lyre
Make music for him
On the ten-stringed harp.

[pre-chorus]
Sing a new song
Play skillfully, sing with joy
For the word of the Lord
Holds true and firm.

[chorus]
We can trust him
He loves what's just
The earth is filled
With his love.

[instrumental]

[verse 2]
The Lord merely spoke
The heavens were created
He breathed the word
And stars were born.

[pre-chorus]
He assigned the sea
Locked oceans in place
Let the whole world
Stand in awe.

[chorus]
When he spoke
The world began
His plans stand firm
Forever unshaken.

[bridge]
What joy for the nation
Whose God is the Lord
His chosen people
His inheritance.

[pre-chorus]
The Lord looks down
Sees the whole race
From his throne
He observes all.

[chorus]
He made hearts
Understands all they do
No army can save
No strength can rescue.

[verse 3]
Don't count on strength
For victory, it can't save
The Lord watches over
Those who fear him.

[pre-chorus]
He rescues from death
Keeps alive in famine
Our hope is in the Lord
Our help and shield.

[chorus]
In him we rejoice
We trust his name
Let his love
Surround us, Lord.

Let the godly sing
For joy to the Lord
It's fitting for the pure
To praise him.
