Chantez à Dieu chanson nouvelle,
Chantez, ô terre universelle,
Chantez, et son Nom bénissez.
Et de jour en jour annoncez
Sa délivrance solennelle.

Sing unto God new songs upraising,
Sing thou, O world, His glory praising,
Sing thou and bless His holy name.
Yea from day to day tell His fame,
Upon His great salvation gazing.
