89a. The Earth Is The Lord's

1 The earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof;
The world, and they that | dwell there- | in;

2 For he hath founded it upon the seas,
And es- | tablished it up- | on the | floods.

3 Solo:
Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord?
And who shall stand in his | holy place?

4 Chorus:
He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart;
Who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity,
Nor | sworn-- | de- -- | ceitfully.

5 He shall receive the blessing from the Lord,
And righteousness from the God of | his sal- | vation.

6 This is the generation of them that seek him,
That | seek thy | face, O | Jacob.

7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
And be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
And the King of glory | shall come | in.

8 Solo:
Who is this King of Glory?

Chorus:
The Lord, strong and mighty;
The | Lord-- | mighty in | battle.

9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
Even lift them up, ye everlasting doors;
And the King of Glory | shall come | in

10 Solo:
Who is this King of Glory?

Chorus:
The Lord of Hosts, | He is the | King of | Glory.
