  Psalm 150 1 Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary;     praise him in his mighty heaven! 2 Praise him for his mighty works;     praise his unequaled greatness! 3 Praise him with a blast of the ram’s horn;     praise him with the lyre and harp! 4 Praise him with the tambourine and dancing;     praise him with strings and flutes! 5 Praise him with a clash of cymbals;     praise him with loud clanging cymbals. 6 Let everything that breathes sing praises to the Lord!
