Psalm 149 reimagined

1. Acclaim the Lord.

Write a new song of worship to the Lord.  Sing it with hearts full of love when you meet together with his / her followers.

2. Church, revel in your creator.  With hearts full of gratitude worship the one who leads you.  
3. Dance before him / her in joy as the worship band leads the praise.
4. The Lord smiles with pleasure at his / her people and he / she builds up the confidence of those who have lost faith in themselves.
5. Let his / her loyal followers give him / her thanks for all his / her love and generosity to them.  Let them sing his / her praises from the moment they wake in the morning.

6. May his / her followers push into action with songs of praise to their God on their lips:
7. Holding people to account for their oppression and abuse;
8. Detaining leaders who misuse their positions of trust and power;
9. Ensuring that justice takes it course and the guilty are punished.  His / her followers will feel privileged to see this happen.

Acclaim the Lord.
