Psalms 147:7-9, 12-14

¶Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; Sing praises to our God with the lyre, Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who provides rain for the earth, Who makes grass grow on the mountains. He gives to the beast its food, And to the young ravens that for which they cry.

¶Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion! For He has strengthened the bars of your gates, He has blessed your children within you. He makes peace in your borders; He satisfies you with the finest of the wheat.
