All People That on Earth Do Dwell

Author: William Kethe Hymnal: UMH #75 (1989) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Year Written: 1561 Lyrics: 1. All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.

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 forever sure; his truth at all times firmly stood, and shall from age to age endure.

Bold I approach th' eternal throne, and claim the crown, through Christ my own.
