The Cyber Hymnal ‎#371

371. Blest Are the Pure, Whose Hearts Are Clean

1. Blest are the pure, whose hearts are clean,
Who never tread the ways of sin;
With endless pleasures they shall see
A God of spotless purity.

2. Blest are the men of peaceful life,
Who quench the coals of growing strife,
They shall be called the heirs of bliss,
The sons of God, the God of peace.
