and all nations will see
your power to save us.
3 Make everyone praise you
and shout your praises.
4 Let the nations celebrate
with joyful songs,
because you judge fairly
and guide all nations.

and shout your praises.
6 Our God has blessed the earth
with a wonderful harvest!

to continue
and for everyone on earth
to worship our God.
