Psalms 95:3
1 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout to the Rock of our salvation!
2 Let us enter His presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him in song.
For the LORD is a great God, a great King above all gods.
4 In His hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to Him.
5 The sea is His, for He made it, and His hands formed the dry land.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
