Poetry

---

Make a joyful noise over all the earth,
Sing praises to the Lord in such mirth;
Give worship the Lord in exaltation,
Come before Him in song of adoration.

Be certain that He is the Lord your God,
That you worship to honor and laud;
It is He who created us and we are His,
And that we should never doubt or quiz.

For we are His sheep part of the flock,
Like a protecting fortress of solid rock;
As He provides us with all of our needs,
Rewarding us for all of our good deeds.

So come through His doors with delight,
Songs of thanksgiving both day and night;
Be thankful of Him and praise His name,
Throughout the earth your faith proclaim.

For the Lord is good in mercy everlasting,
In devotion to the Lord as you are fasting;
With a love upon us that shall never quit,
A love that I humbly subject to submit.
