A Psalm
PSALM 98 C.M.

1 O sing a new song to the LORD,
for wonders he hath done:
His right hand and his holy arm
him victory hath won.

2 The LORD God his salvätion
hath causèd to be known;
His justice in the heathen’s sight
he openly hath shown.

3 He mindful of his grace and truth
to Isr’el’s house hath been;
And the salvation of our God
all ends of th’ earth have seen.

4 Let all the earth unto the LORD
send forth a joyful noise;
Lift up your voice aloud to him,
sing praises, and rejoice.

5 With harp, with harp, and voice of psalms,
unto JEHOVAH sing:
6 With trumpets, cornets, gladly sound
before the LORD the King.

7 Let seas and all their fulness roar;
the world, and dwellers there;
8 Let floods clap hands, and let the hills
together joy declare

9 Before the LORD; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
He’ll judge the world with righteousness,
his folk with equity.
