1 Chronicles 16:27-37

27 Glory and honor [are] in his presence; strength and gladness [are] in his place.

28 Give to the LORD, ye kindreds of the people, give to the LORD glory and strength.

29 Give to the LORD the glory [due] to his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

30 Fear before him, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved.

31 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let [men] say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.

32 Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof: let the fields rejoice, and all that [is] therein.

33 Then shall the trees of the wood sing at the presence of the LORD, because he cometh to judge the earth.

34 O give thanks to the LORD; for [he is] good; for his mercy [endureth] for ever.

35 And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, and gather us together, and deliver us from the heathen, that we may give thanks to thy holy name, [and] glory in thy praise.

36 Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel for ever and ever. And all the people said, Amen, and praised the LORD.

37 So he left there before the ark of the covenant of the LORD Asaph and his brethren, to minister before the ark continually, as every day's work required:
