Beatitudes
When reviled, Christ repaid with compassion
For the Crown took the cross, took our shame
Brought low in the grave, all to rise just the same
It is Christ who deserves all the praise
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
Once reviled, now received with compassion
To a kingdom of sinners turned saints
Compelled by His grace, now in turn we display
With our words, with our works, all His ways
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
So let us learn that the valley gives us vision
As our minds are set above and Christ is lifted
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Blessed are the persecuted
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
For the Crown took the cross, took our shame
Brought low in the grave, all to rise just the same
It is Christ who deserves all the praise
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
Once reviled, now received with compassion
To a kingdom of sinners turned saints
Compelled by His grace, now in turn we display
With our words, with our works, all His ways
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
So let us learn that the valley gives us vision
As our minds are set above and Christ is lifted
Let us learn that to be low is to be high
And that love at its heart is sacrifice
Blessed are the poor in spirit
Comfort to those who mourn
Blessed are the meek and low
For they shall see the Lord
Blessed are the merciful
Peaceful whose hearts are pure
Blessed are the persecuted
Blessed are the persecuted
Blessed are the persecuted
Trust in Christ by faith alone
