know this; be joyful, give thanks

Be joyful in the Lord, all you lands;

serve the Lord with gladness

and come before his presence with a song.

Know this: The Lord himself is God;

he himself has made us, and we are his; we are his people and the sheep of his pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving;

go into his courts with praise; give thanks to him and call upon his Name.

For the Lord is good;

his mercy is everlasting;

and his faithfulness endures from age to age.

Psalms 97
