Who shall inhabit in thy hill

Verse 1

Who shall inhabit in thy hill, O God of holiness? Whom will the Lord admit to dwell So near his throne of grace.

Verse 2

The man that walks in pious ways, And works with righteous hands; That trusts his Maker’s promis'd grace, And follows his commands.

Verse 3

He speaks the meaning of his heart, Nor slanders with his tongue; Will scarce believe an ill report, Nor do his neighbour wrong.

Verse 4

The wealthy sinner he contemns, Loves all that fear the Lord; And tho' to his own hurt he swears, Still he performs his word.

Verse 5

His hands disdain a golden bribe, And never wrong the poor; This man shall dwell with God on earth, And find his heav’n secure.
