1 How good it is to praise the LORD, 

to sing a joyful song, 

And to your name, O God Most High, 

make music all day long; 

​

2 To show your love when morning comes, 

your faithfulness at night, 

3 With music of stringed instruments

your praises to recite. 

​

4 For by your mighty deeds, O LORD, 

you make my spirit glad; 

I sing for joy, when I survey

the works your hands have made. 

​

5 How great are all your works, O LORD, 

your thoughts, how deep and grand!

6 The senseless one does not perceive, 

fools do not understand

​

7 Although the wicked spring like grass, 

the foolish do not see

That all who flourish in their sin

will die eternally.
