Psalm 47
- Clap your hands all you peoples:
cry out to God with shouts of joy. - For the Lord most high is to be feared:
and is the great sovereign over all the earth. - The Lord has subdued the peoples under us:
and the nations under our feet. - The Lord chose a land to be our heritage:
it is the pride of Jacob whom God loves. - God has gone up with shouts of triumph:
the Lord has gone up with a fanfare of trumpets. - Song praises, sing praises to God:
sing praises, sing praises to our king. - For God is the king of all the earth:
sing praises with your utmost skill. - God reigns over the nations:
God is seated on a holy throne. - The princes of the nations assemble:
with the people of the God of Abraham. - For the mighty ones of the earth
have become the servants of God:
the Lord is exalted over all.
Collect
Jesus, light to Leo,
as he protected the church
from heresies, Huns and Vandals,
help us now, in our dangers and confusions,
to see our way.
Amen.
