Tune: Old Hundredth

('All people that on earth do dwell')

Psalm 24 v.1-5

********

The earth is the Lord's, the fulness

The world, all therein, we confess

He has founded it on the seas

Made each thing as it Him does please

 

Who shall ascend into the hill

Of the Lord, to His temple still?

Who shall stand in His holy place?

We shall, but only by His grace

 

They that have clean hands and pure heart

Not from the Lord prone to depart

Nor lifted soul to vanity

Nor have they sworn deceitfully

 

They sure shall receive the blessing

From the Lord, and He too shall bring

Them righteousness, He the God be

Of salvation eternally
