1 Praise to God for His Word and Providence Praise the Lord ! For Ex. 15:18; Ps. 10:16; (Rev. 11:15) it is good to sing praises to our God; Ps. 92:1 For it is pleasant, and Ps. 135:3 praise is beautiful.
2 The Lord Ps. 33:1 builds up Jerusalem; Ps. 102:16 He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.
3 Deut. 30:3; Is. 11:12; 56:8; Ezek. 39:28 He heals the brokenhearted And binds up their wounds.
4 (Ps. 51:17); Is. 61:1; Luke 4:18 He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name.
5 Is. 40:26 Great is our Lord, and Ps. 48:1 mighty in power; Nah. 1:3 His understanding is infinite.
6 Is. 40:28 The Lord lifts up the humble; He casts the wicked down to the ground.
7 Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; Sing praises on the harp to our God,
8 Ps. 146:8, 9 Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who prepares rain for the earth, Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.
9 Job 38:26; Ps. 104:13 He gives to the beast its food, And Job 38:41 to the young ravens that cry.
10 (Matt. 6:26) He does not delight in the strength of the horse; He takes no pleasure in the legs of a man.
11 The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him, In those who hope in His mercy.
12 Praise the Lord , O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!
13 For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your children within you.
14 Ps. 33:16, 17 He makes peace in your borders, And Is. 54:13; 60:17, 18 fills you with the finest wheat.
15 Ps. 132:15 He sends out His command to the earth; His word runs very swiftly.
16 (Ps. 107:20) He gives snow like wool; He scatters the frost like ashes;
17 He casts out His hail like morsels; Who can stand before His cold?
18 Job 37:6 He sends out His word and melts them; He causes His wind to blow, and the waters flow.
19 Job 37:10 He declares His word to Jacob, Deut. 33:4; Ps. 103:7 His statutes and His judgments to Israel.
20 Mal. 4:4 He has not dealt thus with any nation; And as for His judgments, they have not known them. Praise the Lord !
