Sing to the Lord a new song
							
																								
								(Psalm 98:1-9; Isaiah 42:10-17)							
																								
								1
								
									 Hallelujah!(a)  Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly.
								
							 
																								
								2
								
									Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
								
							 
																								
								3
								
									Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.
								
							 
																								
								4
								
									For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.
								
							 
																								
								5
								
									Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.
								
							 
																								
								6
								
									 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands,
								
							 
																								
								7
								
									to inflict vengeance on the nations  and punishment on the peoples,
								
							 
																								
								8
								
									to bind their kings with chains  and their nobles with shackles of iron,
								
							 
																								
								9
								
									to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!
