97. Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion

Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion.
Praise waiteth for thee, O God in Sion,
Unto thee shall the vow be perform'd,
Unto thee shall the vow be perform'd in Jerusalem.

O thou that hearest pray'r
Unto thee shall all flesh come,
Unto thee shall all flesh come.

Make a joyful noise unto God,
Make a joyful noise all ye lands,
Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands,
Sing forth the honor of his name, of his name,
Make his praise glorious.
Sing forth the honor of his name, make his praise glorious.

Bless ye God in the assemblies of the people;
even the Lord, even the Lord, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.
Say unto God
Great and marvelous are thy works, Lord God, Almighty.

Just and true are all thy ways, O thou king of saints.
Just and true are all thy ways, O thou king of saints.

Who shall not fear thee, and glorify thy name!
Great is the Lord, Great is the Lord,
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be prais'd,
His righteousness endureth forever.

The Lord is gracious
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion,
Slow to anger, and of great mercy.
The Lord is good to all, and his tender mercies are over all his works.

Blessed, blessed, blessed be the Lord, God of Isr'el,
from this time forth forever,
from this time forth forever, forever,
and blessed be his glorious name, forever and ever,
amen and amen.
