Sing a new song to the Lord,

have won the victory.[b](B)

toward the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
the victory of our God.

break into song; sing praise.

with the lyre and melodious song.
6 With trumpets and the sound of the horn
shout with joy to the King, the Lord.(C)

the world and those who dwell there.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands,
the mountains shout with them for joy,(E)

who comes to govern the earth,(G)
To govern the world with justice
and the peoples with fairness.
