All people that on earth do dwell
William Kethe, 1561. To be sung to Old Hundredth.
1
All people that on earth do dwell, Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; Him serve with fear, his praise forth tell; Come ye before him and rejoice.
2
The Lord, ye know, is God indeed; Without our aid he did us make; We are his folk, he doth us feed, And for his sheep he doth us take.
3
O enter then his gates with praise; Approach with joy his courts unto; Praise, laud, and bless his name always, For it is seemly so to do.
4
For why? the Lord our God is good; His mercy is for ever sure; His truth at all times firmly stood, And shall from age to age endure.
5
To Father, Son and Holy Ghost, The God whom heaven and earth adore, From men and from the angel host Be praise and glory evermore.
