He that hath clean hands and are pure in heart
who hath not lifted up his soul to vanity nor sworn deceitfully
he shall recieve the blessing from the lord and righteousness
from the garden of his salvation.
This is the generation of them that seek him that seek thy face
oh Jacob selah.
Lift up your heads oh ye gates and be ye lift up ye everlasting doors and
the king of glory shall come in, who is the king of glory
the lord strong and mighty
the lord mighty in battle
Lift up your heads oh ye gates even lift them up ye everlasting doors and
the king of glory shall come in, who is the king of glory the lord strong
and mighty
The lord of hosts he is the king of glory Selah. Rastafari
