Tune: Franconia
(\'Blest are the pure in heart\')
Psalm 40 parts
*********
O LORD God, many are
Your thoughts unto us, far
Above our counting, numberless
They be, come to us, bless
Withhold not your tender
Mercies from me, but sure
O LORD, let your loving-kindness
And truth keep me, no less
To save me, LORD, be pleased
So my troubles be eased
O LORD, make haste to help me, see
I in distresses be
Let all those that seek you
Rejoice and be glad too
In you, and who your salvation
Love, praise you, each nation
