Calendar of Masses, rehearsals, and classes
Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: *
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing ye to the Lord and bless His name: *
shew forth His salvation from day to day.
Declare His glory among the Gentiles: *
His wonders among all people.
For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: *
He is to be feared above all gods.
For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: *
but the Lord made the heavens.
Praise and beauty are before Him: *
holiness and majesty in His sanctuary.
Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, *
bring ye to the Lord glory and honour:
Bring to the Lord glory unto His name. *
Bring up sacrifices, and come into His courts:
Adore ye the Lord in His holy court. *
Let all the earth be moved at His presence.
Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned.
For He hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: *
He will judge the people with justice.
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, *
let the sea be moved, and the fulness thereof:
The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. *
Then shall all the trees of the woods rejoice
Before the face of the Lord, because He cometh: *
because He cometh to judge the earth.
He shall judge the world with justice, *
and the people with His truth.
