Lead me lord, lead me lord! By the light of truth To seek and to find the narrow way? Be my way, be my truth, be my light O lord! And lead me Lord today? Blessed are the poor in spirit longing for their lord, For god's coming kingdom shall be theirs Blessed are the sorrowing for they shall be consoled And god's coming kingdom shall be theirs. Blessed are the merciful for the mercy shall be theirs And the pure in heart shall see their God Blest are they whose hunger only holiness can fill For I say they shall be satisfied Blest are they who through their lifetimes sow the seeds of peace All will call them children of the Lord Blest are you, though persecuted in your holy life For in Heaven great is your reward.
