     Let the sea resound, and all that is in it; let the fields be jubilant, and
  everything in them! Then the trees of the forest will sing, they will sing for joy
  before the Lord, for He comes to judge the earth. Give thanks to the Lord,
  for He is good; His love endures forever.

       Many are asking, “Who can show us any good?” Let the light of Your
  face shine upon us, O Lord. You have filled my heart with greater joy than

  You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety.

  the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever. The ordinances of
  the Lord are sure and altogether righteous.

     The grasslands of the desert overflow; the hills are clothed with gladness.
  The meadows are covered with flocks and the valleys are mantled with grain;
