Chapter 12

A song to praise God

v1 On the day that you are free, you will sing. ‘I give you honour, *Lord! You have been very angry with your people. But your anger has ended. Now you have comforted me. v2 You will keep me safe. I shall not be afraid. My power and my strength come from you, *Lord. You have saved me.’

v3 It is as if your people have been desperate to find water to drink. Then somebody provides a wonderful fountain. The cool water saves your life. What joy is yours! v4 On that day you will offer grateful thanks to the *Lord. And you will give him great honour. You will tell other nations what a wonderful God he is. v5 Sing to the *Lord! He has done such wonderful things. Let all the world know! v6 The Holy God of Israel is great. And he lives among you. So shout aloud and sing with great joy, you people of God!
