PSALM 24
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1The earth belongs unto the Lord,
and all that it contains;
The world that is inhabited,
and all that there remains.
2For the foundations thereof
he on the seas did lay,
And he hath it established
upon the floods to stay.
3Who is the man that shall ascend
into the hill of God?
Or who within his holy place
shall have a firm abode?
4Whose hands are clean, whose heart is pure,
and unto vanity
Who hath not lifted up his soul,
nor sworn deceitfully.
5He from th' Eternal shall receive
the blessing him upon,
And righteousness, ev'n from the God
of his salvation.
6This is the generation
that after him enquire,
O Jacob, who do seek thy face
with their whole heart's desire.
7Ye gates, lift up your heads on high;
ye doors that last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
of glory enter may.
8But who of glory is the King?
The mighty Lord is this;
Ev'n that same Lord, that great in might
and strong in battle is.
9Ye gates, lift up your heads; ye doors,
doors that do last for aye,
Be lifted up, that so the King
of glory enter may.
10But who is he that is the King
of glory? who is this?
The Lord of hosts, and none but he,
the King of glory is.

Psalms 24
24
1A Psalme of David. The earth is the Lordes, and all that therein is: the worlde and they that dwell therein. 2For he hath founded it vpon the seas: and established it vpon the floods. 3Who shall ascende into the mountaine of the Lord? and who shall stand in his holy place? 4Euen he that hath innocent handes, and a pure heart: which hath not lift vp his minde vnto vanitie, nor sworne deceitfully. 5He shall receiue a blessing from the Lord, and righteousnesse from the God of his saluation. 6This is the generation of them that seeke him, of them that seeke thy face, this is Iaakob. Selah. 7Lift vp your heads ye gates, and be ye lift vp ye euerlasting doores, and the King of glory shall come in. 8Who is this King of glorie? the Lord, strong and mightie, euen the Lord mightie in battell. 9Lift vp your heads, ye gates, and lift vp your selues, ye euerlasting doores, and the King of glorie shall come in. 10Who is this King of glory? the Lord of hostes, he is the King of glorie. Selah.
