I Will Sing of the Mercies

Words and Music by James H. Filmore 
arranged by Frank P. Nickel for The Nickel Family Singers

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever, 
I will sing, I will sing.
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever, 
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord.

With my mouth will I make known
Thy faithfulness, Thy faithfulness.
With my mouth will I make known
Thy faithfulness to all generations.

I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever, 
I will sing of the mercies of the Lord.

Serve the Lord with Gladness (Psalm 100)

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands;
serve the Lord with gladness.
Come before His presence with the singing of songs;
serve the Lord with gladness.
Know ye that the Lord, that the Lord is God.
It is He that made us and not we our selves;
serve the Lord with gladness,
serve the Lord with gladness,
make a joyful noise unto the Lord.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands;
serve the Lord with gladness.
For we are His people, of His pasture the sheep;
serve the Lord with gladness.
Enter with thanksgiving, oh, enter ye His gates;
Come, oh, come into His courts, into His courts with praise.
Serve the Lord with gladness,
serve the Lord with gladness,
make a joyful noise unto the Lord.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands;
serve the Lord with gladness.
Be ye thankful unto Him and bless His holy name;
serve the Lord with gladness.
Everlasting is His mercy, yes, the Lord is good
and His truth to ev’ry generation shall endure;
serve the Lord with gladness,
serve the Lord with gladness,
make a joyful noise unto the Lord.

Sing and Give Thanks

Sing and give thanks

all ye saints of God Most High,

partakers of His holiness

and destined for the sky.

His glorious banner be unfurled;

lift high and let it wave!

The King of Kings and Lord of Lords

with wondrous power to save!

Then sing to your mighty Lord!

Oh, sing of His precious Word!

Yes, sing until all have heard

of His saving power. Give thanks and sing!
