And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me. Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people, make mention that his name is exalted. Sing unto the LORD; for he hath done excellent things: this is known in all the earth. Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee.

What the Fathers say

Isaiah 12:5

Western Saints

Thomas Aquinas

389. Sing to the Lord. Here he exhorts them to thanksgiving; and first, that they give thanks to God: sing to the Lord, for he has done great things, in freeing us: sing to the Lord a new canticle: because he has done wonderful things (Ps 97:1); second, that it be announced to the world: show this forth in all the earth: bless the God of heaven, give glory to him in the sight of all that live (Tob 12:6).
