Lyrics
Blessed are those whose spirits are poor
Blessed are all God?s children who mourn
Heaven?s Kingdom shall be theirs
God?s great comfort they will share
Blessed are all the humble and meek
Blessed are those who righteousness seek
They shall one day share the earth
And God?s grace will quench their thirst
And blessed are those who show mercy
They shall obtain the mercy of God
And blessed are the pure in heart
For they shall see their God
Blessed are those who seek to make peace
Sons of God shall be called to be with me
Persecuted scorned and shamed
Those who suffer for my name
Rejoice and be glad
You shall be in Heaven with me
