Psalm 24 reimagined

A psalm of David

1. The Lord claims responsibility for planet Earth and everything in it.  The world and its people belong together with him / her.
2. For he / she created the earth and the way it works, building the land up out of the sea and shaping the deep oceans.

3. Who will be invited to enter the Lord’s residence?  Who can meet him / her in his / her private place?
4. For this a person must dedicate themselves to sincere worship, doing good things, believing what is right and speaking only what is true.
5. The Lord will give them his / her approval and they will have a close relationship with the Creator who delivered them.
6. These people will dedicate themselves to knowing and worshipping you, their God, face-to-face.

9. It’s time to end the malaise and for true and lasting leadership to return.  Let the true leader return to govern.
