Psalms 98

98:1 A psalm.

Sing to the LORD a new song,for he has done marvelous things;his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him. 2 The LORD has made his salvation known and revealed his righteousness to the nations. 3 He has remembered his love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel;all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

We are not trying to please...

97:1
The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad;let the distant shores rejoice.
2 Clouds and thick darkness surround him;righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. 3 Fire goes before him and consumes his foes on every side. 4 His lightning lights up the world;the earth sees and trembles. 5 The mountains melt like wax before the LORD,before the Lord of all the earth. 6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness,and all the people...
