Genevan Psalter,
1551
All
peple that on earth do dwell,
Sing to the Lord with
cheerful voice;
Him serve with fear, his
praise forthtell;
Come ye
before him and rejoice.
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.
O enter then his gates with
praise,
Approach with joy his
courts untol
Praise, laud, and
bless his name always,
For it is
seemly so to do.
For why? the Lord our God is good,
His mercy is
forever sure:
His truth at all times
firmly stood,
And shall from age to age
endure.
Amen
