You are blessed
Strength for the weak, the earth to the meek
Comfort to all those who mourn
The hungry are filled, the troubled heart stilled
The eyes of the pure shall adore
Rejoice and be glad, your reward Is at hand
The abundance of Heaven equips us to stand
Run to Him weary, burdened, distressed
The one who returns shall be given the best
Now our sins are as far as the east from the west
For all who believe they are blessed
Be salt and be light, bring peace in the fight
Let insults be hope for reward
Let good deeds be seen, rejoice in between
The Kingdom is ours says the Lord
Rejoice and be glad, your reward is at hand
The abundance of Heaven equips us to stand
We’ll run to Him weary, burdened, distressed.
At one with him who has given the best
Now our sins are as far as the east from the west
For us who believe we are blessed
( Based on The Beatitudes )
” You are Blessed ” is an insightful Faith-centered work which rewards the discerning reader with its delightful and elegant narrative style.
The Kingdom is ours says the Lord
Rejoice and be glad, your reward is at hand
A beautiful and excellent write.
