All People That On Earth Do Dwell

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord.      Psalm 100:1

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. The Lord, ye know, is God in deed;
   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 for ever sure;
   His truth at all times firmly stood,
   And shall from age to age endure.

WILLIAM KETHE, d, 1593 (1).
