they shout for joy and sing.

Psalm 65

"Praise awaits you, our God in Zion,

to you our vows will be fulfilled.

You who answer prayer,

to you all people will come.

When we were overwhelmed by sins, 

you forgave our transgressions.

Blessed are those you choose

and bring near to live in your courts! 

We are filled with the good things of 

your house,

of your holy temple.

You answer with awesome and 

righteous deeds,

God our Savior, 

the hope of all the ends of the earth

and the farthest seas,

who formed the mountains by your

power,

having armed yourself with strength.

who stilled the roaring of the seas, 

the roaring of their waves, 

and the turmoil of the nations.

The whole earth is filled with awe at 

your wonders;

where morning dawns, where evening 

fades,

you call forth songs of joy. 

You care for the land and water it, 

you enrich it abundantly.

The streams of God are filled with water 

to provide the people with grain,

for so you have ordained it.

You drench its furrows and level its 

ridges;

you soften it with showers and 

bless it crops.

You crown the year with your bounty,

and your carts overflow with 

abundance.

The grasslands of the wilderness

overflow,

the hills are clothed with gladness.

The meadows are covered with flocks

and the valleys are mantled with 

grain,

they shout for joy and sing."
