lyrics

Blessed are those who are poor in spirit, theirs is the Kingdom of God.
Bless us, O Lord, make us poor in spirit, bless us, O Lord, our God.
Blessed are those who are meek and humble, they will inherit the earth.
Bless us, O Lord, make us meek and humble, bless us, O Lord, our God. (Refrain)

refrain:
We are the light of the world, may our light shine before all.
That they may see the good that we do and give glory to God.

Blessed are those who will mourn in sorrow, they will be comforted.
Bless us, O Lord, when we share their sorrow, bless us, O Lord, our God.
Bless those who hunger and thirst for justice, they will be satisfied.
Bless us, O Lord, hear our dry for justice, bless us, O Lord, our God. (Refrain)

Blessed are they who show others mercy, they will know mercy too.
Bless us, O Lord, hear our cry for mercy, bless us, O Lord, our God.
Blessed are hearts that are clean and holy, they will behold the Lord.
Bless us, O Lord, make us pure and holy, bless us, O Lord, our God.(Refrain)

Blessed are those who bring peace among you, they are the children of God.
Bless us, O Lord, may your peace be with us, bless us, O Lord, our God.
Bless those who suffer from persecution, theirs is the Kingdom of God.
Bless us, O Lord, when they persecute us, bless us, O Lord, our God. (Refrain)
