Christian Hymns ‎#103

103. Blest are the pure in heart

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 Still to the lowly soul
He doth Himself impart,
And for His temple and His throne
Chooseth the pure in heart.

3 Lord, we Thy presence seek,
May ours this blessing be:
Give us a pure and lowly heart,
A temple meet for Thee!
