Praise and Worship to the Lord Almighty

1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.
10 Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
13 Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

Commentary

Psalm 96 is a beautiful expression of praise and worship to our Lord. It reminds us that we are not alone in our worship of God, but instead, we are but a small part of the universal chorus of praise to the Creator. The chapter also challenges us to go beyond our comfort zones, to sing new songs, and to open our eyes to God's glory in our daily lives. Whether through music or any other form of worship, we should always strive to honor and glorify God, for He is above all else. May we be inspired to praise and worship the Lord Almighty continually, just as the psalmist did in this chapter.
