Ye nations round the earth, rejoice

Ye nations round the earth, rejoice
Before the Lord, your sovereign King,
Serve Him with cheerful heart and voice
With all your tongues His glory sing.

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.

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.

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.
