All People That on Earth Do Dwell

Author: William Kethe Appears in 723 hymnals Lyrics: 1 All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerfull voice; Him serve with mirth, his praise forth-tell, Come ye before him and rejoice. 2 Know that the Lord is God indeed; Without our aid he did us make; We are his flock, he doth us feed, And for his sheep he doth us take. 3 O 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. 4 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.
