"Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands!

Serve the Lord with gladness;

Come before His presence with singing.

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 into His gates with thanksgiving,

And into 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."

Psalm 100

"I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God; For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation, He has covered me with the robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments, And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels."

Isaiah 61:10

"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."   1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

"God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, 

but that the world through Him might be saved."  John 3:17
