Lord, in thy tabernacle, who Wilt thou with welcome entertain?

Verse 1

Lord, in thy tabernacle who Wilt thou with welcome entertain? Who on thy mount of sanctity, A constant dweller shall remain?

Verse 2

The man who walketh uprightly, That always worketh righteousness, And what is in his honest-heart Does truly with his mouth express.

Verse 3

Who with his tongue backbiteth not, Nor does his neighbor any wrong, Nor takes up a reproach to hurt His neighbor from another's tongue.

Verse 4

Whose eyes the vile, tho' great, contemn, But honors all who fear the Lord: Who truly swears, tho' to his hurt; And changes not, but keeps his word.

Verse 5

Who to oppressing usury Hath not for gain his money lent; Nor taketh a reward or bribe To wrong a person innocent. Who constantly observes these things, And does all in sincerity; Is surely in a happy state, And he shall never moved be.
