Sing we merrily unto God our strength, Make a chearefull noyse unto the God of Jacob.
Take the Shalme, bring hither the Tabret, the merry Harp with the Lute.
Blow up the Trumpet in the new Moone, even in the time appointed, and upon our solemn feast day:
for this was made a statute for Israel, and a Law of the God of Jacob.
