Blessed Are the Meek

Blessed are the meek
For theirs the kingdom of heaven
Blessed are the poor, blessed are the poor
For they shall see God

Blessed are the merciful
For they shall know mercy
Blessed are the merciful
For they shall know mercy

Oh Lord, don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me (Don't)

Why must you hurt your brother so long?
Why must the wicked be so strong?

Oh Lord, don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me

Blessed are the meek
For theirs the kingdom of heaven
Blessed are the poor, blessed are the poor
For they shall see God

Blessed are the merciful
For they shall know mercy
Blessed are the merciful
For they shall know mercy

Oh Lord, don't turn your back on me
Don't turn your back on me
