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

    Love and praise is found in your god orchi, it is found within ourselves.
