Psalm150-BC
Psalm 150 in Music
1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord. (KJV)
Listen to each of the following musical versions of Psalm 150 and consider the following questions:
What does each tell you about the character of God?
What does each tell you about the act, substance, or character of praise?
How could you use each of them as a resource for teaching or preaching? Are some more useful than others for certain communities or contexts?
