Make a joyful noise unto the Lord,
all ye lands.
Serve the Lord with gladness;
come before his presence
with singing.
Know ye that the Lord,
he is God;
it is he that hath made us,
and not we ourselves;
we are his people, and the
sheep of his pasture.
Enter into his gates
with thanksgiving,
and into his courts
with praise;
be thankful unto him,
and bless his name.
For the Lord is good;
his mercy is everlasting;
and his truth endureth
to all generations. R
