Psalm 47, Chant B

 

Psalm 47   Omnes gentes, plaudite

1 Clap your hands, all you peo-ples; *
shout to God with a cry of joy.

2 For the LORD Most High is to be feared; *
he is the great King over all the earth.

3 He subdues the peoples un–der us, *
and the nations under our feet.

4 He chooses our inheritance for us, *
the pride of Jacob whom he loves.

5 God has gone up with a shout, *
the LORD with the sound of the ram’s-horn.

6 Sing praises to God, sing prai-ses; *
sing praises to our King, sing prai-ses.

7 For God is King of all the earth; *
sing praises with all your skill.

8 God reigns over the na-tions; *
God sits upon his ho-ly throne.

9 The nobles of the peoples have gathered to-ge-ther *
with the people of the God of A-braham.

10 The rulers of the earth belong to God, *
and he is highly ex-al-ted.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. A-men.
