1: Hallelujah! Praise GOD from heaven, praise him from the mountaintops;
2: Praise him, all you his angels, praise him, all you his warriors,
3: Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, you morning stars;
4: Praise him, high heaven, praise him, heavenly rain clouds;
5: Praise, oh let them praise the name of GOD- he spoke the word, and there they were!
6: He set them in place from all time to eternity; He gave his orders, and that's it!
7: Praise GOD from earth, you sea dragons, you fathomless ocean deeps;
8: Fire and hail, snow and ice, hurricanes obeying his orders;
9: Mountains and all hills, apple orchards and cedar forests;
10: Wild beasts and herds of cattle, snakes, and birds in flight;
11: Earth's kings and all races, leaders and important people,
12: Robust men and women in their prime, and yes, graybeards and little children.
13: Let them praise the name of GOD- it's the only Name worth praising. His radiance exceeds anything in earth and sky;
14: he's built a monument--his very own people! Praise from all who love GOD! Israel's children, intimate friends of GOD. Hallelujah! al
