Author: Hal H. Hopson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1301 First Line: The earth belongs to the Lord Refrain First Line: Sing, believers! Lyrics: Refrain
Sing, believers!
Give thanks for those whose joy is the Lord.
1. The earth belongs to the Lord,
And all that we enjoy,
A strong foundation was laid,
Was laid within the seas. [Refrain]
2. O tell us, who shall ascend?
Who shall go up to God’s house?
It is those who love the Lord,
Who make God’s will their own. [Refrain]
3. O tell us, who are these saints,
These saints who praise God’s name?
It is those whose hearts are clean,
Whose joy is in the Lord. [Refrain]
4. O come, and praise the Lord,
And serve the world God made,
Whose love is ever sure:
O praise God’s holy name. [Refrain]
