Even Psalms with other authors are attributed to him, since he incorporated them into the canon of prayers and praises; otherwise they would likely have been lost.Psalms 100 is a Psalm of praise, which is what King David had in mind as its purpose. It was to be recited when ascending to the Holy Temple.
