Psalm 100

Refrain:    The Lord is gracious; his steadfast love is everlasting.

1    O be joyful in the Lord, all the earth;  

serve the Lord with gladness

and come before his presence with a song.

2    Know that the Lord is God;  

it is he that has made us and we are his;

we are his people and the sheep of his pasture. [R]

3    Enter his gates with thanksgiving

and his courts with praise;  

give thanks to him and bless his name.

4    For the Lord is gracious; his steadfast love is everlasting,  

and his faithfulness endures from generation to generation.

Refrain:    The Lord is gracious; his steadfast love is everlasting.

O Christ, door of the sheepfold,

may we enter your gates with praise

and go from your courts to serve you

in the poor, the lost and the wandering,

this day and all our days.
