Blest are the poor,
whose spirits know their need;
God’s heav’nly kingdom
will be theirs indeed.
Blest, those who mourn;
God’s comfort will be known.
Blest are the meek;
the world will be their own.
Blest, those who seek
God’s righteousness each day;
They will be filled
and never turned away.
Blest are the kind,
for mercy will be giv’n.
Blest are the pure in heart;
they’ll see God in Heav’n.
Blest, men of peace;
they will God’s sons be named.
Blest, those who suffer slander
and much shame.
Blest, faithful ones,
enduring for your Lord.
Rejoice, be glad,
for great is your reward.
I see my need and
humbly seek Your face.
Show me Your mercy;
all my cares erase.
Keep my heart pure;
I long for righteousness.
I know that as Your child
I’m fully blest.
