lyrics

Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they shall be filled. The prophets suffered in my name, also you will suffer for me. Rejoice that your reward in heaven is great. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the sons of God.
