Psalm 24:1-6

The earth belongs unto the Lord,
and all that it contains;
The world that is inhabited,
and all that there remains.
2 For the foundätions thereof
he on the seas did lay,
And he hath it establishèd
upon the floods to stay.

3 Who is the man that shall ascend
into the hill of God?
Or who within his holy place
shall have a firm abode?
4 Whose hands are clean, whose heart is pure,
and unto vanity
Who hath not lifted up his soul,
nor sworn deceitfully.

5 He from th' Eternal shall receive
the blessing him upon,
And righteousness, ev'n from the God
of his salvätion.
6 This is the generätion
that after him enquire,
O Jacob, who do seek thy face
with their whole heart's desire.
