Be joyful in the Lord; be joyful, all you lands. With gladness come before the Lord; draw near with song. Know that the Lord is God, who made us and still stands to guard the folk, who like a flock, to God belong. Approach God's house with thanks and fill its courts with praise; with awe invoke God's holy Name: come and adore. The Lord our God is good, whose mercy lasts always and whose great faithfulness endures for evermore.
