Psalm 24 verses 1-10

 

Psalm 24:1-10

1. The earth is the Lord’s and all that fills it,

the compass of the world and all who dwell therein.

2 For he has founded it upon the seas

and set it firm upon the rivers of the deep.

3‘Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord,

or who can rise up in his holy place?’

4‘Those who have clean hands and a pure heart,

who have not lifted up their soul to an idol,

nor sworn an oath to a lie;

5‘They shall receive a blessing from the Lord,

a just reward from the God of their salvation.’

6 Such is the company of those who seek him,

of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.

7 Lift up your heads, O gates;

be lifted up, you everlasting doors;

and the King of glory shall come in.

8 Who is the King of glory?’

‘The Lord, strong and mighty,

the Lord who is mighty in battle.’

9 Lift up your heads, O gates;

be lifted up, you everlasting doors;

and the King of glory shall come in.

10‘Who is this King of glory?’

‘The Lord of hosts,

he is the King of glory.’

  Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and shall be for ever. Amen.

  Psalm 104 verses 26-33 26  O Lord, how manifold are your works! In wisdom you have made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. 27 There is the sea, spread far and wide, and there move creatures beyond number, both small and great. 28 There go the ships, and there is that Leviathan which you have made to play in the deep. 29 All of these look to you to give them their food in due season. 30 When you give it them, they gather it; you open your hand and they are filled with good. 31 When you hide your face they are troubled; when you take away their breath, they die and return again to the dust. 32 When you send forth your spirit, they are created and you renew the face of the earth. 33 May the glory of the Lord endure for ever; may the Lord rejoice in his works;

Psalm 19 for Sunday 7th March 2021

1The heavens are telling the glory of God and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. 2One day pours out its song to another and one night unfolds knowledge to another. 3They have neither speech nor language and their voices are not heard, 4Yet their sound has gone out into all lands and their words to the ends of the world. 5In them has he set a tabernacle for the sun that comes forth as a bridegroom out of his chamber and rejoices as a champion to run his course. 6It goes forth from the end of the heavens and runs to the very end again and there is nothing hidden from its heat 7The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure and gives wisdom to the simple. 8 The statutes of the Lord are right and rejoice the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure and gives light to the eyes. 9 The fear of the Lord is clean and endures for ever; the judgements of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 10 More to...
