Representative Text

Praise Jehovah, whose kingdom is eternal;
Praise Jehovah, the Sovereign of the universe;
Bow down before him, adore the King of Israel,
Laud and extol Him whom seraphs call the Infinite!
Glory to God! With the voice of holy song
Let ev’ry heart sing His praise, for His name alone is excellent.
Praise ye the Lord, great Creator of earth and heaven,
For His glory is high above the stars—exalted King of the ages!
Glory to the Father, to the great and mighty Ruler!
Praise ye the Eternal, enthroned in the heights above,
Glory to the mighty God! God the Father, and His holy Son,
As it was in the beginning, and is now, and ever shall be.
