OMNES GENTES, PLAUDITE.

1 O clap your hands to- | gether, • all ye | people ||
O sing unto | God • with the | voice of | melo•dy. ||
2 For the Lord is | high, and • to be | feared ||
he is the great | King upon | all the | earth. ||
3 He shall subdue the | people | under • us ||
and the | nations | under • our | feet. ||
4 He shall choose | out an | heritage • for us ||
even the worship of | Jacob, | whom he | loved. ||
5 God is gone up with a | merry | noise ||
and the | Lord • with the | sound • of the | trump. ||
6 O sing praises, sing praises | unto our | God ||
O sing praises, sing | praises | unto our | King. ||
7 For God is the | King of • all the | earth ||
sing ye | praises with | under- | standing. ||
8 God | reigneth • over the | heathen ||
God | sitteth up•on his | holy | seat. ||

9 The princes of the people are joined unto the people of the | God of | Abra•ham ||
for God, which is very high exalted, * doth defend the | earth, • as it | were • with a | shield. ||
Glory | be • to the | Father, ||
and to the Son, | and • to the | Holy | Ghost; ||
As it | was in • the be- | ginning, ||
is now, and ever shall be, * | world with•out | end. A- | men. ||
