Psalms 100:3-5
Know that the Lord, He is God. It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
Enter in to His gates with thanksgiving, And His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the Lord is good;
His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.
