Psalm 100

All Lands Summoned to Praise God

A Psalm of thanksgiving.

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.(A)
    Serve the Lord with gladness;
    come into his presence with singing.

Know that the Lord is God.
    It is he who made us, and we are his;[a]
    we are his people and the sheep of his pasture.(B)

Enter his gates with thanksgiving
    and his courts with praise.
    Give thanks to him; bless his name.(C)

For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures forever
    and his faithfulness to all generations.(D)

All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being(B) in him was life,[a] and the life was the light of all people.(C) The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overtake it.

14 And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son,[a] full of grace and truth.(A) 15 (John testified to him and cried out, “This was he of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me ranks ahead of me because he was before me.’ ”) 16 From his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.[b](B) 17 The law indeed was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.(C)
