2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
3 O go your way into his gates with thanksgiving, * and into his | courts with | praise; ||

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
4 For the Lord is gracious, his | mercy is • ever- | lasting; ||
and his truth endureth from gener- | 3 ation to | gener- | ation. ||
5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.
About the Pointing
The text of the Coverdale Psalter follows the 1928 American Book of Common Prayer. The pointing, suitably adapted, is taken from Charles Macpherson, Edward C. Bairstow, and Percy C. Buck, The English Psalter (Novello & Co., 1925).
