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!
