The earth, and those who dwell therein,
with all their wealth untold,
belong to God who founded it
upon the seas of old.
Oh, who shall stand before the Lord
on Zion's holy hill?
The clean of hands, the pure of heart,
the ones who do God's will.
For such are they that seek the Lord,
and blest by God they live;
to them the pure and righteous way
the God of grace will give.
Make way, O everlasting doors!
Lift up your heads, O gates!
For now, behold, to enter in,
the King of glory waits.
Who is this glorious King that comes
to sit upon the throne?
All hail the Lord of hosts who is
unrivaled King alone.
with all their wealth untold,
belong to God who founded it
upon the seas of old.
Oh, who shall stand before the Lord
on Zion's holy hill?
The clean of hands, the pure of heart,
the ones who do God's will.
For such are they that seek the Lord,
and blest by God they live;
to them the pure and righteous way
the God of grace will give.
Make way, O everlasting doors!
Lift up your heads, O gates!
For now, behold, to enter in,
the King of glory waits.
Who is this glorious King that comes
to sit upon the throne?
All hail the Lord of hosts who is
unrivaled King alone.
