Season of Creation 1B: Earth Sunday

Season of Creation 1B, Earth SundayPsalm 33

1-3
Good people, cheer God!
    Right-living people sound best when praising.
Use guitars to reinforce your Hallelujahs!
    Play his praise on a grand piano!
Invent your own new song to him;
    give him a trumpet fanfare.

4-5
For God's Word is solid to the core;
    everything he makes is sound inside and out.
He loves it when everything fits,
    when his world is in plumb-line true.
Earth is drenched
    in God's affectionate satisfaction.

6-7
The skies were made by God's command;
    he breathed the word and the stars popped out.
He scooped Sea into his jug,
    put Ocean in his keg.

8-9
Earth-creatures, bow before God;
    world-dwellers―down on your knees!
Here's why: he spoke and there it was,
    in place the moment he said so.
