THE PURE IN HEART.

BY ELIZA H. MORTON.
LIKE a lily white and pearly, Like the surf upon the sea, Like a cloud of fleecy beauty Is the heart of purity.
And the thoughts are high and holy Of the soul that soars above, Of the heart from sin all spotless Like the wings of snowy dove.
But the garments that are shining Are the garments of the Lord, And, if we would have that covering, We must seek the help of God.
All the promises emblazoned On God's earthward-bending bow, All the blessedness of glory Soon the pure in heart shall know.
In the home of sinless beings, In the mansions made of gold, Sights and scenes of heavenly splendor Will the pure in heart behold.
North Deering, Me.
