24

Domini est terraBCP p. 613

1The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it, *the world and all who dwell therein.

2For it is he who founded it upon the seas *and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep.

3“Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *and who can stand in his holy place?”

4“Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *who have not pledged themselves to falsehood, nor sworn by what is a fraud.

5They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *and a just reward from the God of their salvation.”

6Such is the generation of those who seek him, *of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.

7Lift up your heads, O gates; lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in.

8“Who is this King of glory?” *“The Lord, strong and mighty, the Lord, mighty in battle.”

9Lift up your heads, O gates; lift them high, O everlasting doors; *and the King of glory shall come in.

10“Who is he, this King of glory?” *“The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.”
