It is good to sing praise

1
Hallelujah! (a) How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and lovely to praise Him!
2
The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers the exiles of Israel.
3
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
4
He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name.
5
Great is our Lord, and mighty in power; His understanding has no limit.
6
The LORD sustains the humble, but casts the wicked to the ground.
7
Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make music on the harp to our God,
8
who covers the sky with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who makes grass to grow on the hills.
9
He provides food for the animals, and for the young ravens when they call.
10
He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legpower of the man.
11
The LORD is pleased with those who fear Him, who hope in His loving devotion.
12
Exalt the LORD, O Jerusalem; praise your God, O Zion!
13
For He strengthens the bars of your gates and blesses the children within you.
14
He makes peace at your borders; He fills you with the finest wheat.
15
He sends forth His command to the earth; His word runs swiftly.
16
He spreads the snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes;
17
He casts forth His hail like pebbles.(b) Who can withstand His icy blast?
18
He sends forth His word and melts them; He unleashes His winds, and the waters flow.
19
He declares His word to Jacob, His statutes and judgments to Israel.
20
He has done this for no other nation; they do not know His judgments.(c) Hallelujah!
