" Thy Will be doner 221
Blest are the souls that thirst for grace, Hunger and long for righteousness ; They shall be well supplied and fed With living streams and living bread.
Blest are the men whose bowels move And melt with sympathy and love ; From Christ the Lord shall they obtain Like sympathy and love again.
Blest are the pure, whose hearts are clean From the defiling power of sin ; With endless pleasure they shall see A God of spotless purity.
Blest are the men of peaceful life, Who quench the coals of growing strife ; They shall be call'd the heirs of bliss, The sons of God, the God of peace.
Blest are the sufferers, who partake Of pain and shame for Jesus' sake ; Their souls shall triumph in the Lord, Glory and joy are their reward.
Isaac Watts. 1709. |
