A JUBILANT PSALM

We have a very happy call to worship in the following text. The theme of giving thanks to God jubilantly is most obvious!

Oh come, let us sing to the LORD!
Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation.

Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving;
Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms.

For the LORD is a great God,
And the great King above all gods. Psalm 95:1-3
