1.The earth and the riches with which it is stored,
the world and its dwellers belong to the LORD,
for he on the seas its foundation has laid,
and firm on the waters its pillars has stayed.
2.O who shall the mount of the LORD God ascend,
or who in the place of his holiness stand?
The man of pure heart and of hands without stain,
who swears not in falsehood nor loves what is vain.
3.A blessing he shall from the LORD God receive;
the God of salvation shall righteousness give.
For this is the people, yea, this is the race,
who seek Jacob’s God, who are seeking his face.
4.O gates, lift your heads! Ancient doors, lift them high!
The King of all glory to enter draws nigh!
O who is this King that in glory draws near?
The LORD, mighty LORD of the battle, is here!
5.O gates, lift your heads! Ancient doors, lift them high!
The King of all glory to enter draws nigh!
This King of all glory, O who can he be?
The LORD God of hosts! King of glory is he!
