A song of ascents.
1 Praise the Lord, all you servants(A) of the Lord
who minister(B) by night(C) in the house of the Lord.
2 Lift up your hands(D) in the sanctuary(E)
and praise the Lord.(F)
Our ascent to throne of God ends with our glorification, the time when God clothes us with new immortal and sinless bodies. Then we will be able to behold his face and see him as he is. Then we can dwell with everlasting burnings because we ourselves will have become as a fire that purges all things unclean. When that occurs we will burst forth in spontaneous praise blessing our God, the LORD Jesus Christ, and his eternal Father!
Yes, we will join the heavenly host and sing,
150 (A)Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his (B)sanctuary;
praise him in (C)his mighty heavens![a]
2 Praise him for his (D)mighty deeds;
praise him according to his excellent (E)greatness!
3 Praise him with (F)trumpet sound;
praise him with (G)lute and (H)harp!
4 Praise him with (I)tambourine and (J)dance;
praise him with (K)strings and (L)pipe!
5 Praise him with sounding (M)cymbals;
praise him with loud clashing cymbals!
6 Let (N)everything that has breath praise the Lord!
(O)Praise the Lord!
