In this invitation to worship the Lord, you are given three admonitions.

Sing to the Lord (1–6). Sing a new song because you have had a new experience with Him. Sing a worship hymn because God is glorious (v. 3) and great (vv. 4–5). Sing a gospel song because the nations need to hear the good news of salvation. Sing a song of victory and reveal the strength of the Lord. Sing a song of devotion and reveal the beauty of the Lord.

Give to the Lord (7–10). Give Him glory with your lips and heart, and give Him offerings with your hands. God does not need your gifts (Acts 17:24–25), but you need to bring your gifts to God. He deserves the best (Mal. 1:6–14).

Look for the Lord (11–13). All nature is eagerly anticipating the Lord’s return, for then creation will be set free (Rom. 8:18–25). The oppressed people will be vindicated, and sinners will be judged when Jesus Christ comes to reign. God’s people shall reign with Christ and then worship Him perfectly. Hallelujah!
