Psalm 135

The Psalm

Psalms. Chapter 135. Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD’s name! Praise him, you servants of the LORD, you who stand in the LORD’s house, in the courts of our God’s house. Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession. For I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is above all gods. Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps. He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He makes lightnings with the rain. He brings the wind out of his treasuries. He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal. He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants. He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings— Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan— and gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people. Your name, LORD, endures forever; your renown, LORD, throughout all generations. For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants. The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see. They have ears, but they can’t hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths. Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them. House of Israel, praise the LORD! House of Aaron, praise the LORD! House of Levi, praise the LORD! You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD! Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!

Worship Lyrics

Praise the LORD
Praise the LORDs name
Praise him, you servants of the LORD
You who stand in the LORDs house, in the courts of our Gods house
Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good
Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant
For the LORD has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession
For I know that the LORD is great, that our Lord is above all gods
Whatever the LORD pleased, that he has done, in heaven and in earth, in the seas and in all deeps
He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth
He makes lightnings with the rain
He brings the wind out of his treasuries
He struck the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and animal
He sent signs and wonders into the middle of you, Egypt, on Pharaoh
And on all his servants
He struck many nations, and killed mighty kings—
Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan—
And gave their land for a heritage, a heritage to Israel, his people
Your name, LORD, endures forever; your renown, LORD, throughout all generations
For the LORD will judge his people and have compassion on his servants
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the work of mens hands
They have mouths, but they cant speak
They have eyes, but they cant see
They have ears, but they cant hear, neither is there any breath in their mouths
Those who make them will be like them, yes, everyone who trusts in them
House of Israel, praise the LORD
House of Aaron, praise the LORD
House of Levi, praise the LORD
You who fear the LORD, praise the LORD
Blessed be the LORD from Zion, who dwells in Jerusalem
Praise the LORD
