Psalm 100

Be Thankful

A psalm of thanksgiving.

Shout triumphantly to the Lord, all the earth.(A)
Serve the Lord with gladness;
come before Him with joyful songs.(B)
Acknowledge that Yahweh is God.
He made us, and we are His[a](C)
His people, the sheep of His pasture.(D)
Enter His gates with thanksgiving(E)
and His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him and praise His name.(F)
For Yahweh is good, and His love is eternal;
His faithfulness endures through all generations.
