1 <A Psalm of Praise.> Make a glad sound to the Lord, all the earth.
They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall cry aloud from the sea. Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea. From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.
Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.

Commentary on Psalms 100 Keil & Delitzsch Commentary
Call of All the World to the Service of the True God
This Psalm closes the series of deutero-Isaianic Psalms, which began with Ps 91. There is common to all of them that mild sublimity, sunny cheerfulness, unsorrowful spiritual character, and New Testament expandedness, which we wonder at in the second part of the Book of Isaiah; and besides all this, they are also linked together by the figure anadiplosis, and manifold consonances and accords.
The arrangement, too, at least from Psalms 93:1-5 onwards, is Isaianic: it is parallel with the relation of Isaiah 24:1 to Psalms 13:1 . Just as the former cycle of prophecies closes that concerning the nations, after the manner of a musical finale, so the Psalms celebrating the dominion of God, from Psalms 93:1-5 onwards, which vividly portray the unfolded glory of the kingship of Jahve, have Jubilate and Cantate Psalms in succession.
From the fact that this last Jubilate is entirely the echo of the first, viz., of the first half of Psalms 95:1-11, we see how ingenious the arrangement is. There we find all the thoughts which recur here. There it is said in Psalms 95:7, He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the flock of His hand. And in Psalms 95:2, Let us come before His face with thanksgiving ( בּתודה ), let us make a joyful noise unto Him in songs!
