BLEST ARE THE PURE IN HEART

​

Blest are the pure in heart,

For they shall see our God;

The secret of the Lord is theirs;

Their soul is Christ’s abode.

The Lord, who left the heavens

Our life and peace to bring,

To dwell in lowliness with us

Our pattern and our King.

Still to the lowly soul

He doth Himself impart;

And for His cradle and His throne

Chooseth the pure in heart.

Lord, we Thy presence seek;

May ours this blessing be;

Give us a pure and lowly heart,

A temple meet for Thee.
