[C] All people that on earth do dwell,
[F] Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice;
[G] Him serve with fear, his praise forth tell,
[C] Come ye before him and rejoice.

[C] The Lord, ye know, is God indeed;
[F] Without our aid he did us make;
[G] We are his flock, he doth us feed;
[C] And for his sheep he doth us take.

[C] O enter then his gates with praise,
[F] Approach with joy his courts unto:
[G] Praise, laud and bless his name always;
[C] For it is seemly so to do.
