Blest Are They

David Haas

Blest are they, the poor in spirit, theirs is the kingdom of God.
Blest are they, full of sorrow, they shall be consoled.

Ref:
Rejoice and be glad! Blessed are you, holy are you!
Rejoice and be glad! Yours is the kingdom of God!

Blest are they, the lowly ones, they shall inherit the earth.
Blest are they who hunger and thirst, they shall have their fill.

Blest are they who show mercy, mercy shall be theirs.
Blest are they who hunger and thirst, they shall have their fill.

Blest are they who seek peace; they are the children of God.
Blest are they who suffer in faith, the glory of God is theirs.

Blest are you who suffer hate, all because of me.
Rejoice and be glad, yours is the kingdom; shine for all to see.

Behold the Wood

Dan Schutte

Ref:
Behold, behold, the wood of the cross,
On which is hung our salvation, O come, let us adore.

Unless a grain of wheat shall fall upon the ground and die,
It shall remain but a single grain, and not give life.

And when My hour of glory comes as all was mean to be,
You shall see Me lifted upon a tree.

For there can be no greater love shown upon this land,
Than in the one who came to die that we might live.
