A Song Of Praise To Yahweh

10 Sing unto the LORD, a new song of thanksgiving; blow out his praise unto the end of the world. They that be upon the sea, and all that is therein, praise him; the Isles and they that dwell in them. 11 Let the wilderness with her cities lift up her voice; the towns also that be in Cedar. Let them be glad that sit upon rocks of stone; and let them cry down from the high mountains 12 ascribing almightiness unto the LORD, and magnifying him among the Gentiles.
