Blessed Are the Meek

Lyrics

On the mountainside, the Savior stood so bright, teaching crowds who gathered in the morning light. “Blessed are the poor in spirit, heaven’s theirs to claim, blessed are the mourners, they’ll find comfort in His name.” He spoke of mercy, peace, and hearts made pure, a kingdom not of power, but of love that will endure. (Chorus) Blessed are the meek, the earth shall be their own, blessed those who hunger — righteousness is shown. Blessed are the merciful, they’ll receive the same, Jesus, Son of God, we praise Your holy name! Sermon on the Mount, burning like a flame, Your words still guide us, calling out our name. (Verse 2) “Love your enemies and pray for those who curse, turn the other cheek, let forgiveness be your first. Do not store up treasures where the moth and rust destroy, lay them up in heaven, where no thief can take the joy.” Do not worry for tomorrow, trust the Father’s care, seek His kingdom first — all else will be there. (Chorus) Blessed are the meek, the earth shall be their own, blessed those who hunger — righteousness is shown. Blessed are the merciful, they’ll receive the same, Jesus, Son of God, we praise Your holy name! Sermon on the Mount, burning like a flame, Your words still guide us, calling out our name. (Bridge) You are the salt of the earth, the light upon the hill, let your good works shine, so the Father’s praised and still. Not by sword or might, but by the way of the cross, You gave everything to rescue all the lost. (Verse 3) Whoever hears these words and builds on solid stone, his house will stand when storms and raging winds are blown. The wise obey and follow in Your steps of grace, the foolish build on sand and fall without a trace. Jesus, gentle Teacher, King of humble hearts, Your Sermon lights the way that never departs. (Final Chorus – softer, then rising) Blessed are the peacemakers, called the children of God, blessed those persecuted for the path that Jesus trod. In Your holy teachings, eternal life we find, Sermon on the Mount — forever on our mind. Sermon on the Mount… forever on our mind.
