Blest Are The Undefiled In Heart

Blest are the undefiled in heart,

Whose ways are right and clean;

Who never from Thy law depart,

But fly from every sin.

Blest are the men that keep Thy Word,

And practice Thy commands;

With their whole heart they seek the Lord,

And serve thee with their hands.

Great is their peace who love Thy law;

How firm their souls abide!

Nor can a bold temptation draw

Their steady feet aside.

Then shall my heart have inward joy,

And keep my face from shame,

When all Thy statutes I obey,

And honor all Thy Name.

But haughty sinners God will hate,

The proud shall die accursed;

The sons of falsehood and deceit

Are trodden to the dust.

Vile as the dross the wicked are;

And those that leave Thy ways

Shall see salvation from afar,

But never taste Thy grace.
