Blessed are those who dwell in Your house
They are ever praising You
Blessed are those whose strength is in You
Whose hearts are set on our God

Until we see You face to face
Hear our prayer
Oh Lord, God almighty
Come bless our land
As we seek You
Worship You

For You are holy




For You are holy
For You are holy, Lord

Gospelย Mt 5:1-12

When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain,
and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him.ย 
He began to teach them, saying:

ย ย  ย โ€œBlessed are the poor in spirit,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
ย ย  ย Blessed are they who mourn,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will be comforted.
ย ย  ย Blessed are the meek,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will inherit the land.
ย ย  ย Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will be satisfied.
ย ย  ย Blessed are the merciful,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will be shown mercy.
ย ย  ย Blessed are the clean of heart,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will see God.
ย ย  ย Blessed are the peacemakers,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for they will be called children of God.
ย ย  ย Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
ย ย  ย ย ย  ย for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you
and utter every kind of evil against you falsely because of me.
Rejoice and be glad,
for your reward will be great in heaven.
Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.โ€
