Psalm 24. Domini est terra.

From the Book of Divine Worship - The Psalter or Psalms of David - Contemporary - Fifth Day - Morning Prayer.
  1. The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it, *
    the world and all who dwell therein.
  2. For 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.
  5. They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *
    and a just reward from the God of their salvation."
  6. Such is the generation of those who seek him, *
    of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.
  7. Lift 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."
  9. Lift 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."
