[Avodah] Kabbalat Shabbat poetry

I made an observation about Kabbalat Shabbat, and I was wondering if
anyone else had the same observation. In the six psalms we sing, the
ending has a word (a shoresh at least) that is repeated:

 

Psalm 95: ... to-ay l'vav haym, v'haym ...

Psalm 96: ... lifnay Hashem ki va, ki va... and ...lishpot haaretz,
yishpot...

Psalm 97: ... ulyishray layv simcha. Simchoo...

Psalm 98: ... ki va lishpot haaretz, yishpot...

Psalm 99: ... v'hishtachavoo l'har kadsho, ki kadosh...

Psalm 29: ... Hashem lamabool yashav, vayayshev Hashem...

 

Just wondering if I should just leave it as "that's nice," or if I
should make something more out of it.

 

All the best,

 

Philip
