THE PURE IN HEART.

The pure in heart, O God, How blest their lot shall be, Amid the worship of thy throne To stand and look on thee!
To stand and look on thee, So long beloved unseen; Assured, perfected in thy sight— Without a shade between.
What must it be to walk Where sinless seraphs throng, With palm, and crown, and raiment white, With golden harp and song!
What that refrain to join Thy saints alone may sing; “Thou hast redeemed us by thy blood, O everlasting King!”
The men of peace are blest, And all who wisdom seek; The poor in spirit, true in soul, The merciful, the meek.
Some wondrous grace, O God, Thou wilt to each impart; But the sum of all the joys of Heaven Is for the pure in heart.
—Advocate and Guardian.
