Psalm 95:  Traditional Venite, exultemus 

O come, let us sing unto the Lord; *
 let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation. 

Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, *
 and show ourselves glad in him with psalms. 


For the Lord is a great God, *
 and a great King above all gods. 

In his hand are all the corners of the earth, *
 and the strength of the hills are his also. 

The sea is his and he made it, *
 and his hands prepared the dry land. 


O come, let us worship and fall down *
 and kneel before the Lord our Maker. 

For he is the lord our God, *
 and we are the people of his pasture
 and the sheep of his hand. 


Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts *
 as in the provocation,
 and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness; 

When your fathers tempted me, *
 proved me, and saw my works. 


Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, *
 It is a people that do err in their hearts,
 for they have not known my ways. 

Unto whom I sware in my wrath, *
 that they should not enter into my rest.
