Sing to the Lord a new-made song,
Who wondrous things has done:
With his right hand and holy arm
The conquest he has won.

The Lord has through th'astonish'd world
Display'd his saving might,
And made his righteous acts appear
In all the heathen's sight.

Of Israel's house his love and truth
Have ever mindful been:
Wide earth's remotest parts the pow'r
Of Israel's God have seen.

Let therefore earth's inhabitants
Their cheerful voices raise;
And all with universal joy
Resound their maker's praise.
