“Let Everything That Hath Breath Praise the Lord”
Psalm 150:1–6
1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.
Elder Bruce R. McConkie wrote:
“How fitting is the oft-repeated Psalmic word: ‘Praise ye the Lord . . . Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.’ (Ps. 150:1–6.) Hallelujah! . . .
“Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God; He was crucified for the sins of the world; He is our Lord, our King, our God—the Promised Messiah!
“He came in the meridian of time to work out the infinite and eternal Atonement.
“He has set up His kingdom again on earth in these last days to prepare a people for His Second Coming.
“He shall soon come again to live and reign on earth with faithful men for the space of a thousand years.
“Blessed be His holy name both now and forever.”
(The Promised Messiah: The First Coming of Christ [1978], 614, 615.)
