The Earth, with All That Dwell Therein

Meter: 8.6.8.6.6 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The earth, with all that dwell therein, with all its wealth untold, belongs to God, who founded it upon the seas of old, upon the seas of old. 2 Oh, who shall stand before the Lord on Zion’s holy hill? The clean of hand, the pure of heart, the just who do God's will, the just who do God's will. 3 Lo, such are they that seek the Lord, and blest by God they live; to them the Lord's pure righteous ways the God of grace will give, the God of grace will give. 4 O everlasting doors, give way; lift up your head, O gates! For now, behold, to enter in, the King of glory waits, the King of glory waits. 5 Who is this glorious King that comes to sit upon the throne? All hail the Lord of Hosts, who is our glorious King alone, our glorious King alone.

O send Thou forth Thy light and truth, Let them be guides to me, And bring me to Thy holy hill, Thy dwelling-place to see, Thy dwelling-place to see. 4. Then will I to God’s altar go, To God, my boundless joy; Yea, God, my God, Thy name to praise My harp I will employ, My harp I will employ. 5. Why art thou then cast down, my soul, What should discourage thee? And why with vexing thoughts art thou Disquieted in me? Disquieted in me? 6. Hope thou in God; His praise shall yet My thankful lips employ; He is the spring of all my health, My God, my boundless joy, My God, my boundless joy.
