LyicsBE joyful in God, all ye lands of the earth,
O serve him with gladness and fear;
Exult in his presence with music and mirth,
With love and devotion draw near,
The Lord he is God, and Jehovah alone,
Creator and ruler o'er all;
And we are his people, his sceptre we own:
His sheep, and we follow his call,
O enter his gates with thanksgiving and song,
Your vows in his temple proclaim;
His praise with melodious concordance prolong,
And bless his adorable name,
For good is the Lord, inexpressibly good,
And we are the work of his hand:
His mercy and truth from eternity stood,
And shall to eternity stand.
