Tune: Unter Herrscher - 'with ruler'

('Come ye faithful, raise the anthem')

*******

Psalm 95 v.1

Come let us unto the LORD sing

Grateful worship, praises bring

Let us make a noise true joyful

To the LORD, the King of all

He the rock of our salvation

Availing to each nation

 

Psalm 95 v.6-7

O come let us before Him kneel

He will hear us, forgive, heal

Let us bow before Him humbly

He the penitents shall see

For He is our God, he us made

We sheep in pasture arrayed

 

Psalm 96 v.7-8

Give to the LORD glory and strength

His praise be of endless length

Give Him glory due to His name

He who e'er remains the same

Bring an offering to His courts

He accepts good gifts, all sorts

 

Psalm 96 v.10-11

Say among heathen, the LORD reigns 

Does as He wills, as he deigns

The world also shall be stablished

Nothing unsteady or missed

He shall the people judge rightly

In Him we shall joyful be

 

Psalm 97 v.12

Rejoice in Him all you righteous

He comes to us, us shall bless

Give thanks at the remembrance

Of His holy, pure presence

He e'er the LORD, reigns for ever

And shall abdicate never

 

Psalm 98 v.2

The LORD His salvation has shown

To all lands it He made known

His righteousness openly too

Shown to heathen, not a few

Good news message sowed unto all

Who do hear His gracious call

 

Psalm 99 v.9

Exalt the LORD our God, Him praise

At His holy hill songs raise

Worship Him, for He is holy

Now and evermore shall be

Join each voice in acclamation

Of the LORD, and Christ His Son

 

Psalm 100 v.3

Know you that the LORD he us made

In creation us outlaid

We His people in His pasture

Sheep of His, we are kept sure

For He the great Shepherd us feeds

Tends us, cares, and meets our needs
