We are his folk, he does us feed, And for his sheep he does us take. 3 O enter then his gates with praise; Approach with joy his courts unto; Praise, laud, and bless his Name always, For it is seemly so to do. 4 For why? The Lord our God is good: His mercy is for ever sure; His truth at all times firmly stood, And shall from age to age endure. 5 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, The God whom heaven and earth adore, From us and from the angel host Be praise and glory evermore. * Praise God, from whom all blessings flow: Praise him, all creatures here below; Praise him above, you heav'nly host: Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
