Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 100:1-2, 3, 4, 5ġ Acclaim Yahweh, all the earth,Ģ serve Yahweh with gladness, come into his presence with songs of joy!ģ Be sure that Yahweh is God, he made us, we belong to him, his people, the flock of his sheepfold.Ĥ Come within his gates giving thanks, to his courts singing praise, give thanks to him and bless his name!ĥ For Yahweh is good, his faithful love is everlasting, his constancy from age to age.
