1 Blest are the undefiled in heart,
Whose ways are right and clean,
Who never from Thy law depart,
But flee from ev'ry sin.
2 Blest are the men that keep Thy word,
And practice Thy commands;
With their whole heart they seek the Lord,
And serve Thee with their hands.
3 Great is their peace who love Thy law;
How firm their souls abide!
Nor can a bold temptation draw
Their steady feet aside.
4 Then shall my heart have inward joy
And keep my face from shame,
When all Thy statutes I obey,
And honor all Thy name.
