Tune: Diademata
('Crown Him with many crowns')
********
Psalm 24 v.7
Lift up your heads, O gates
Your great King, He awaits
To enter in His city bright
Dispelling all dark, night
And be lift up, yo doors
Hear our prayers, our implores
You everlasting doors be raised
The city's king be praised
Psalm 24 v.8-11
Who is this King, who He?
The King of glory, see
The LORD strong and mighty He be
Enemies 'fore* Him flee (*=before)
He mighty in battle
Does defeat His foes all
He LORD of hosts of endless power
His reign shall ever flower
Psalm 25 v.1-2
Unto you, LORD I lift
My soul, you give each gift
And grace, O God, I trust in you
Come inspire me anew
Let not my enemies
Triumph, you each one sees
Grant me your aid, your victory
Undeserving mercy
Psalm 25 v.10-11
All paths of the LORD be
Of truth and of mercy
To such as keep His covenant
And testimonies sent
For your name's sake pardon
My sin, Lord, you the one
In whom forgiveness can be found
Praises to you redound
Psalm 26 v.8
LORD, the habitation
You chose it in Zion
Jerusalem, your city where
Your presence biding there
I have loved this your place
Where you dwell by your grace
The house wherein your honour sure
And glory is e'ermore
Psalm 27 v.1
The LORD He is my light
My hope through the dark night
He my salvation, I not fear
For I know He is near
He of my life the strength
Throughout its entire length
Whom shall I fear, your presence dear
Shall keep me always here
