Christ on the Mount

Come un­to Je­sus

ye that mourn

Our bless­èd Sav­ior said;

His pro­mis­es

how sure they are

Ye shall be com­fort­ed.

This pro­mise

on that sac­red mount

Was giv­en by our Lord;

Rejoice

and be ex­ceed­ing glad

For great is your re­ward.

Ye poor in spir­it

un­to you

How great the bless­ings giv’n;

His choic­est pro­mis­es are yours

Yours is the king­dom—Heav’n.

The meek

and they for Je­sus’ sake

Who per­se­cu­tions bear;

He pro­mis­es a heav’n­ly home

A crown of glo­ry there.

Be mer­ci­ful

for un­to such

He spares His chast’ning rod;

Be pure in heart

our Sav­ior says

The pure shall dwell with God.
