PSALM 66
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1All lands to God in joyful sounds,
aloft your voices raise.
2Sing forth the honour of his name,
and glorious make his praise.
3Say unto God, How terrible
in all thy works art thou!
Through thy great pow'r thy foes to thee
shall be constrain'd to bow.
4All on the earth shall worship thee,
they shall thy praise proclaim
In songs: they shall sing cheerfully
unto thy holy name.
5Come, and the works that God hath wrought
with admiration see:
In's working to the sons of men
most terrible is he.
6Into dry land the sea he turn'd,
and they a passage had;
Ev'n marching through the flood on foot,
there we in him were glad.
7He ruleth ever by his pow'r;
his eyes the nations see:
O let not the rebellious ones
lift up themselves on high.
8Ye people, bless our God; aloud
the voice speak of his praise:
9Our soul in life who safe preserves,
our foot from sliding stays.
10For thou didst prove and try us, Lord,
as men do silver try;
11Brought'st us into the net,
and mad'st bands on our loins to lie.
12Thou hast caus'd men ride o'er our heads;
and though that we did pass
Through fire and water, yet thou brought'st
us to a wealthy place.
13I'll bring burnt off 'rings to thy house;
to thee my vows I'll pay,
14Which my lips utter'd, my mouth spake,
when trouble on me lay.
15Burnt-sacrifices of fat rams
with incense I will bring;
Of bullocks and of goats I will
present an offering.
16All that fear God, come, hear, I'll tell
what he did for my soul.
17I with my mouth unto him cry'd,
my tongue did him extol.
18If in my heart I sin regard,
the Lord me will not hear:
19But surely God me heard,
and to my prayer's voice gave ear.
20O let the Lord, our gracious God,
for ever blessed be,
Who turned not my pray'r from him,
nor yet his grace from me.

Psalm 66
To the Overcomer, A Song or Psalm.
1¶ Make a joyful noise unto God, all the earth;
2sing forth the glory of his name; put glory into thy praise.
3Say unto God, How terrible art thou in thy works! Through the greatness of thy power shall thine enemies submit themselves unto thee.
4All the earth shall worship thee and shall sing unto thee; they shall sing to thy name. Selah.
5Come and see the works of God; he is terrible in his doing toward the sons of men.
6He turned the sea into dry land; they went through the river on foot; there did we rejoice in him.
7He rules by his power for ever; his eyes watch the Gentiles; the rebellious shall not exalt themselves. Selah.
8¶ O bless our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of his praise to be heard.
9It is he who placed our soul into life and did not suffer our feet to slip.
10For thou, O God, hast proved us; thou hast refined us as silver is refined.
11Thou didst bring us into the net; thou didst lay affliction upon our loins.
12Thou hast placed a man over our head; we went through fire and through water, but thou didst bring us out into abundance.
13¶ I will go into thy house with burnt offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
14which my lips have uttered and my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble.
15I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
16Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he has done unto my soul.
17I cried unto him with my mouth, and he was extolled with my tongue.
18If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
19 But verily God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer nor his mercy from me.
