A Hallelujah, alluding to the 150 Psalm.

Come praise the LORD, come praise him
Where Saints assembled are,
As hee's Almighty praise him
His Righteousness declare.
In his excellings praise him
With Trumpet and with Flute,
With Harp and Psaltery praise him,
With Viol and with Lute,
Let nothing that can praise him
Unactive be; or mute.
Upon the Timbrel praise him
In songs his praise advance;
Upon the Organs praise him
And praise him in the Dance;
On tingling Symbals praise him
That, make the loudest noise
And let each crature praise him
That sense or breath enjoys,
Yea, let privations praise him
Although they have no voices.
