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.
2 Know that the LORD is God indeed;
without our aid He did us make;
we are His flock, He doth us feed,
and for His sheep He doth us take.
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.
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.
