Verse 1
All people that on earth do dwell,
sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.
Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell;
come ye before Him and rejoice.
Verse 2
The Lord, ye know, is God indeed;
without our aid He did us make;
we are His folk, He doth us feed,
and for his sheep He doth us take.
Verse 3
O enter then his gates with praise;
approach with joy his courts unto;
praise, laud, and bless his name always,
for it is seemly so to do.
Verse 4
For why? The Lord our God is good;
His mercy is forever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood,
and shall from age to age endure.
Verse 5
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God whom heaven and earth adore,
from men and from the angel host
be praise and glory evermore.
