Friday, August 30th | Psalm 15

Passage:
1 LORD, who can dwell in your tent?
Who can live on your holy mountain?

2 The one who lives blamelessly, practices righteousness,
and acknowledges the truth in his heart—
3 who does not slander with his tongue,
who does not harm his friend
or discredit his neighbor,
4 who despises the one rejected by the LORD
but honors those who fear the LORD,
who keeps his word whatever the cost,
5 who does not lend his silver at interest
or take a bribe against the innocent—
the one who does these things will never be shaken.
(Psalm 15:1-5 CSB17)

Song:

Psalm 15 by Poor Bishop Hooper

Lyrics:
Who may worship in Your sanctuary?
Who may find You on Your holy hill?
Who may enter in Your presence?
Who may see Your glory and still stand, still stand, still stand?
Still stand, still stand, still stand
Who may worship in Your sanctuary?
Who may find You on Your holy hill?
Who may enter in Your presence?
Who may see Your glory and still stand, still stand, still stand?
Still stand, still stand, still stand

Make us those whose lives are blameless
Make us those with sincere hearts
Make us those who keep their promise
Even when it hurts, and hurts, and hurts, and hurts
Hurts, and hurts, and hurts

Prayer:
O Lord, we pray that your grace may always precede and follow after us, that we may continually be given to good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
