Paraphrase of the Hundredth Psalm

Unto the Lord, oh lands, make joyful noise,
And all ye nations, joyfully now sing;
Know ye, all ye, the Lord your God is King;
Serve Him with gladness, for He hath made us.
Created us. Each man thinks he creates
Himself, but of a truth that is not so!
The Lord, he is the God, ye all must know,
And ye must enter with thanksgiving in His gates!
We are His people, sheep of his pasture;
So enter ye into His courts with praise,
And bless His holy name, ye lands, always,
For He is good, His righteousness is sure!
His mercy everlasting, O ye nations,
His truth endureth to all generations!
