#542THE PURE IN HEART

Words: John Keble
1
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.
2
The Lord, who left the heavens Our life and peace to bring, To dwell in lowliness with men, Their Pattern and their King.
3
Still to the lowly soul He doth himself impart, And for his dwelling and his throne Chooseth the pure in heart.
4
Lord, we thy presence seek; May ours this blessing be; Give us a pure and lowly heart, A temple meet for thee.
