1 Poor in spirit, pure in heart,
Living all for Thee;
Meek and lowly as Thou art,
Savior, I would be.

Refrain:
Thou who knowest all my care
Help me thro’ this world of sin;
Patiently my cross to bear,
Till the crown of life I win.

2 Poor in spirit, pure in heart,
Precious words of Thine;
They shall see Thy face above,
May that joy be mine. [Refrain]

3 Poor in spirit, pure in heart,
Keep, O keep my soul;
Let me feel Thy boundless love,
Like an ocean roll. [Refrain]

4 Poor in spirit, pure in heart,
Then my trials past;
Thou hast promised I shall sing
Victory at last. [Refrain]
