Text: O Sing unto the Lord a new song (HWV 249b)

George Frideric Handel (1685–1759)

  1. Sinfonia
     
  2. Soprano solo and Chorus
    O sing unto the Lord a new song:
    sing unto the Lord, all the whole earth.
     
  3. Chorus
    Declare his honour unto the heathen:
    and his wonders unto all the people.
    For the Lord is great, and cannot worthily be praised:
    he is more to be feared than all gods.
     
  4. Air for tenor
    The waves of the sea rage horribly;
    but yet the Lord who dwelleth on high is mightier.
     
  5. Duet for soprano and tenor
    O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
     
  6. Chorus
    Let the whole earth stand in awe of him.
     
  7. Chorus
    Let the heavens rejoice and let the earth be glad:
    let the sea make a noise, and all that therein is.
