Welcome
All People That on Earth Do Dwell (245)
All people that on earth do dwell,
sing to the LORD with cheerful voice;
Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell;
come ye before him and rejoice.
Know that the LORD 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.
Oh, 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.
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.
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom heav’n and earth adore,
From us and from the angel host
Be praise and glory evermore.

    When by thy grace the vict’ry’s won,                 Oh, may this bounteous God
    E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,              Through all our life be near us,
    Since God through Jordan leadeth me. [Refrain]       With ever joyful hearts

    Tenderly caring for his erring children;             And free us from all harm
    Praise him, all angels; praise him in the heavens;   In this world and the next.
    Praise to the Father!
