('The church of God a kingdom is')
Psalm 24 v.1-6
*********
The earth is the LORD's, and all in
It, all contained therein
And too they that do in it dwell
They are the LORD's, we tell
He founded he earth on the seas
Made it as He did please
Established it on the waters
On all He life confers
Who shall ascend His holy hill?*
And who worship Him still?
Who shall stand in His holy place?
Whate'er nation or race
They that have clean hands and pure heart
They not from Him apart
They who not follow vanity
They not deceitful be
They shall receive from Him blessing
Prosper in each good thing
They shall receive His righteousness
Welcomed by Him no less
These are they that do seek His face
And they His mercies trace
They shall know Him, His salvation
Whate'er class or station
-----
* Ascending the 'holy hill' in Jerusalem,
that leads up to God's Temple.
