Day 5 : Morning Prayer

24 - Domini est terra

1  The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it, *
the compass of the world and those who dwell therein.
2  For he has founded it upon the seas *
and established it upon the rivers of the deep.
3  Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? *
Or who shall stand in his holy place?
4  He who has clean hands and a pure heart, *
and who has not set his mind upon vanity, nor sworn 
to deceive his neighbor.
5  He shall receive blessing from the Lord *
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.
6  This is the generation of those who seek him, *
even of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.
7  Lift up your heads, O you gates, and be lifted up,
  you everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.
8  “Who is the King of glory?” *
“It is the Lord, strong and mighty, even the Lord,
mighty in battle.”
9  Lift up your heads, O you gates, and be lifted up,
  you everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.
10  “Who is the King of glory?” *
“The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.”
