PSALM 24, by                    
First Line: The earth is the lord's, and the fulness thereof
Last Line: Who is this king of glory? The lord of hosts, he is the king of glory.


THE earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that
dwell therein.
For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy

place?
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul

unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God

of his salvation.
This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.
Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in
battle.
Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.
Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.
