Blessed

Stripped of every resource, there is now no recourse;
but to trust in Him.

living as a mourner, leads me as a pauper;
to the Comforter.

The choice of the humble, is no need to grumble;
life’s needs are met in Him.

Hunger in need, quenched indeed;
By all of the Eternal.

By Mercy’s love required, by Mercy’s love inspired;
received and given.

The heart of purity, focus of integrity;
Brings Father into sight.

The power of peace, brings warring to cease;
In His children reflected.

Persecutions meanness, met by one’s forgiveness;
Reward awaits with Him.
