Blessed are the poor in spirit;
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are those who mourn;
for they shall be comforted.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are the meek;
for they shall inherit the earth.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are those who hunger
and thirst after righteousness;
for they shall be satisfied.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are the merciful;
for they shall obtain mercy.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are the pure in heart;
for they shall see God.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are the peace makers;
for they shall be called the children of God.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are those who persecuted for righteousness’ sake;
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
Blessed are you when the world reviles you
and persecutes you;
and utters all manner of evil against you
falsely for my sake:
Rejoice and be exceeding glad;
for great is your reward in heaven.
Remember your servants, Lord,
when you come in your kingly power.
