Who shall ascend that holy hill,
Where God and saints and angels dwell,
In yon bright world above?
The man whose heart and hands are clean,
From the defiling power of sin,
And seeks the Saviour’s love.
The man alone who is renewed,
Whose heart is changed his lusts subdued,
By efficacious grace;
Whose words and actions are sincere,
Where truth and honour both appear,
Through all his Christian race.
Whose hope is fixed, whose faith relies
On Christ’s atoning sacrifice,
For pardon with his God;
This is the happy man who will
At last ascend to Zion’s hill,
And make it his abode.
