Song Writing: Psalm 24

Verse 1
Lord all the earth is Yours, and all it contains as well
Everything, everyone, You made us all

You founded the land on the seas, You drew the rivers
You spoke and creation was there, You made it all

Chorus 1&2
May we ascend the hill of the Lord?
In this holy place may we stand?

Are our hands clean?  Are our hearts pure?
Have we worshiped others?

Be lifted up, you gates and you doors
For our King of glory comes

Who is this King?  He is the Lord
Mighty and strong, Lord over all

Verse 2
Lord, You formed all our parts/hearts.  You know us deeply
What could we offer to You?  You have our all

You seek a broken heart, a spirit that’s contrite
Lord we confess, You are our hope.  On your name we call

Bridge
We long to approach, to stand at your throne, but we must be righteous
If You would redeem, if You would restore, then we could come

Chorus 3
As we ascend the hill of the Lord
In this holy place, as we stand

Make our hands clean, make our hearts pure
Please, cause us to worship You

Be lifted up, you gates and you doors
For our King of glory came

Dwell in our heart, waken our soul
Glorious King, Lord over all

-Grace and Peace
