“O serve the Lord with gladness,”
And come before His throne;
He is the great Creator,
And He is God alone;
The heavens declare His glory,
The earth His power displays;
While millions without number
To Him glad anthems raise.

Refrain

“O serve the Lord with gladness,”
And come before His throne;
He is our great Redeemer,
And He is God alone.

“O serve the Lord with gladness,”
And glad hosannas bring,
To Him the Sovereign Ruler,
The universal King;
Forever through the ages
His truth unchanging stands;
Let all the nations fear Him,
And reverence His commands.

Refrain

“O serve the Lord with gladness,”
His love to all proclaim;
Exalt Him in the highest;
And spread abroad His fame;
All majesty, dominion,
All power and glory be
To Him who reigns in triumph,
Through all eternity.

Refrain
