"O GOD, my heart is fixed; I will sing and give praise, even with my glory" (Psalm 108:1).

"The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sun" (Psalm 74:16).

"Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding" (Job 38:4).

"Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Lord, O my soul" (Psalm 146:1).

Each of the last five psalms (146-150) begins and ends with: "Praise ye the LORD"--i.e., "Hallelujah." They comprise a sort of "Hallelujah Chorus": a grand epilogue to the five books which make up the complete book of Psalms.

"For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God" (Hebrews 11:10).
