Psalms 98:6
4 Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth—let your cry ring out, and sing praises!
5 Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, in melodious song with the harp.
With trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn shout for joy before the LORD, the King.
7 Let the sea resound, and all that fills it, the world, and all who dwell in it.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands, let the mountains sing together for joy
