Chandos Anthem no. 1: O be joyful in the Lord, all ye lands

Händel, Georg Friedrich

Sonata

Tenor and Chorus

O be joyful in the Lord, all ye lands:

Chorus

Serve the Lord with gladness, and come before

his presence with a song.

Soprano and Tenor. Duet

Be ye sure that the Lord he is God: it is he that

has made us, and not we ourselves; we are his

people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Chorus

O go your way into his gates with thanksgiving,

and into his courts with praise: be thankful

unto him, and speak good of his Name.

Soprano, Tenor and Bass. Trio

For the Lord is gracious, his mercy is

everlasting: and his truth endureth from

generation to generation.

Chorus

Glory be to the Father, glory be to the Son: and

to the Holy Ghost;

Chorus

As it was in the beginning, it is now, and ever

shall be: world without end. Amen.
