Psa 9:1 I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works. {2} I will be glad and rejoice in thee; I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. Psa 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God. Psa 7:17 I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high. Psa 28:6-7 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. {7} The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him. Psa 33:1-6 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. {2} Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings. {3} Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise. {4} For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth. {5} He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. {6} By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. Psa 34: {1} I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. {2} My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. {3} O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. {4} I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. {7} The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. {8} O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him. {9} O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him. {11} Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord. {12} What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? {13} Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. {14} Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. {15} The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. {16} The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. {17} The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. {18} The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. {19} Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. {20} He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. {21} Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. {22} The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. Psa 66:1-2 Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands: {2} Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious. Psa 71:22-24 I will also praise thee with the psaltery, even thy truth, O my God: unto thee will I sing with the harp, O thou Holy One of Israel. {23} My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing unto thee; and my soul, which thou hast redeemed. {24} My tongue also shall talk of thy righteousness all the day long: Psa 86:12 I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore. Psa 92:1-3 It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: {2} To show forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, {3} Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. Psa 95:1-7 O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. {2} Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. {3} For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. {4} In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also. {5} The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. {6} O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker. {7} For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Psa 96:1-4 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. {2} Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; show 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. Psa 96:8-9 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. Psa 97:1-2 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. {2} Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. {6} The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. {9} For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. {10} Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked. {11} Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. {12} Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. Psa 100 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. {2} Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. {3} Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. {4} Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. {5} For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. Psa 103:1-4 Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. {2} Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: {3} Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; {4} Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Psa 104:24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. Psa 105:1-5 O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people. {2} Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works. {3} Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD. {4} Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore. {5} Remember his marvellous works that he hath done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth; Psa 107:8-9 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! {9} For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness. Psa 108:3-5 I will praise thee, O LORD, among the people: and I will sing praises unto thee among the nations. {4} For thy mercy is great above the heavens: and thy truth reacheth unto the clouds. {5} Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: and thy glory above all the earth; Psa 118:28-29 Thou art my God, and I will praise thee: thou art my God, I will exalt thee. {29} O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. Psa 145 I will extol thee, my God, O king; and I will bless thy name for ever and ever. {2} Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever. {3} Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. {4} One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts. {5} I will speak of the glorious honour of thy majesty, and of thy wondrous works. {6} And men shall speak of the might of thy terrible acts: and I will declare thy greatness. {7} They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness. {8} The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. {9} The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works. {10} All thy works shall praise thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee. {11} They shall speak of the glory of thy kingdom, and talk of thy power; {12} To make known to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his kingdom. {13} Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations. {14} The LORD upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down. {15} The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season. {16} Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing. {17} The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy in all his works. {18} The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. {19} He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them. {20} The LORD preserveth all them that love him: but all the wicked will he destroy. {21} My mouth shall speak the praise of the LORD: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever. Psa 146 Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. {2} While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. {3} Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. {4} His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. {5} Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: {6} Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever: {7} Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: which giveth food to the hungry. The LORD looseth the prisoners: {8} The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: the LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: the LORD loveth the righteous: {9} The LORD preserveth the strangers; he relieveth the fatherless and widow: but the way of the wicked he turneth upside down. {10} The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD. Psa 147:5-11 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite. {6} The LORD lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground. {7} Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: {8} Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains. {9} He giveth to the beast his food, and to the young ravens which cry. {10} He delighteth not in the strength of the horse: he taketh not pleasure in the legs of a man. {11} The LORD taketh pleasure in them that fear him, in those that hope in his mercy. Dan 4:37 Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. Rev 4:8-11 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come. {9} And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever, {10} The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying, {11} Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created. Rev 5:9-14 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; {10} And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. {11} And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands; {12} Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing. {13} And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. {14} And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever. Rev 7:9-12 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; {10} And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. {11} And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God, {12} Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. Rev 11:16-17 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, {17} Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned. Rev 14:2-3 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps: {3} And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth. Rev 15:3-4 And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. {4} Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest. Rev 19 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: {2} For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand. {3} And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever and ever. {4} And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia. {5} And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. {6} And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth. {7} Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
