This is the Day the Lord Has Made – Psalm 118
This is the Day the Lord Has Made for SATB and piano or organ is from Psalm 118:24, and the energetic rhythms and melodic skips portray the words, “Let us be glad and jump for joy!”

 Sing, Jubilation – Psalm 118
Sing Jubilation is a celebratory response to Psalm 116: 15, 16.
Dextera Domini is the right hand, the dexterous hand, of the Lord, and jubilatio is jubilation, wild shouting, and whooping.  The soaring melodies and jubilant spirit are especially appropriate for the celebration of the Easter Vigil where it was first sung.
