WHAT JESUS SAID song lyrics
adapted from Matthew 5

Now when Jesus saw the crowds
he went up the mountainside
his people came to him
and he told them why

he began to teach them
for the old and youth
the multitude did listen
to the essence of the truth

Blessed are the poor
the poor in spirit blessed
for the kingdom of heaven
to those who will say yes

Blessed those who mourn
for they'll be comforted
Blessed are the meek
for they'll inherit the earth

Blessed those who hunger and thirst
for righteousness, they will be filled
Blessed are the merciful,
for mercy will be their's until

Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they will see the living God
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they'll be called children of God

Blessed are those who are persecuted
because of their righteousness
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
and so they shall be blessed

Blessed when people do evil against you
because you believe in me
Rejoice and be glad, because great your reward
when you are in heaven with me

You are the light of the world
You are the salt of the earth
the kingdom of heaven at hand
and you shall have rebirth

love your enemies
as you wish to be loved
and you shall find your peace
in the sky above...
