The Earth, with All That Dwell Therein
from Psalm 24
The Psalter, 1912
LONDON NEW (C.M.)
Scottish Psalter
1635
The earth, with all that dwell there-in,
With all its wealth un-told,
Be-longs to God who found-ed it
Up-on the seas of old.
What man shall stand be-fore the Lord
On Zi-on's ho-ly hill?
The clean of hand, the pure of heart,
The just who do His will.
Lo, such are they that seek for God,
And blest by Him they live;
To them His per-fect right-eous-ness
The God of grace will give.
Ye ev-er-last-ing doors, give way;
Lift up your heads, ye gates!
For now, be-hold, to en-ter in
The King of glo-ry waits.
Who is this glo-rious King that comes
To claim His sov-ereign right?
It is the Lord om-ni-po-tent,
All-con-quering in His might.
Ye ev-er-last-ing doors, give way;
Lift up your heads, ye gates!
For now, be-hold, to en-ter in
The King of glo-ry waits.
Who is this glo-rious King that comes
To claim His right-ful throne?
The Lord of Hosts, He is the King
Of glo-ry, God a-lone.
