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 folk, 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.
