< Psalms 100 >
1 A Psalm for Thanksgiving. Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.
A Psalm of Praise. Make a glad sound to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Serve the Lord with gladness; come before his presence with exultation.
Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.
3 Know that the Lord he is God; he made us, and not we ourselves; [we are] his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Be certain that the Lord is God; it is he who has made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep to whom he gives food.
4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with hymns; give thanks to him, praise his name.
Come into his doors with joy, and into his house with praise; give him honour, blessing his name.
5 For the Lord is good, his mercy is for ever; and his truth [endures] to generation and generation.
For the Lord is good, and his mercy is never-ending; his faith is unchanging through all generations.
