MAKE joyfull noises to the Lord,
O all ye Nations of the Earth:
Serve him with joy, his praise record,
come in his sight with Songs of mirth.

Know that the Lord is God alone,
we are the flock which he doth keep:
His workmanship, and not our own,
his people and his Pasture-sheep.

Enter his Gates with thankfulness,
and come with joy into his Courts:
Great gratitude to him express,
and bless his Name in full••resorts.

For lo, the Lord is good and kind,
his mercy everlasting is:
His truth all Generations find
for evermore assur'd to his.
