1 Ye nations of all the earth, rejoice,
Before the Lord, your sovereign King;
Serve Him with cheerful heart and voice;
With all your tongues His glory sing.
2 The Lord is God; 'tis He alone
Doth life, and breath, and being give;
We are His work, and not our own;
The sheep that on His pastures live,
3 Enter His gates with songs of joy,
With praises to His courts repair;
And make it your divine employ
To pay your thanks and honors there.
4 The Lord is good the Lord is kind,
Great is His grace, His mercy sure;
And the whole race of man shall find
His truth from age to age endure.
