Lyrics
[intro]
[solo]
[Verse 1]
Jesus climbed that mountain, with His followers near,
Sat down with the crowd, His message crystal clear.
He started to speak, with words so divine,
Blessings for the humble, the poor, and the kind.
[solo]
[Chorus]
Blessed are the poor in spirit, heaven's theirs to own,
Blessed are the mourners, comfort they'll be shown.
Blessed are the meek, the earth will be their claim,
Blessed are the hungry, for righteousness they'll gain.
[solo]
[Verse 2]
Blessed are the merciful, mercy they will find,
Blessed are the pure in heart, God’s truth in their mind.
Blessed are the peacemakers, God's children they'll be,
Blessed are the persecuted, for justice they’ll see.
[solo]
[Chorus]
Blessed are you when they insult and abuse,
Falsely accuse you, for the sake of truth.
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is high,
In heaven's realm, where true blessings lie.
[solo]
[Verse 3]
You are the salt of the earth, keep your flavor bright,
If salt loses its taste, how can it bring light?
You are the light of the world, shining on a hill,
A beacon in the night, guiding hearts with goodwill.
[solo]
[Chorus]
Let your light shine before men, let them see your good deeds,
Give glory to your Father, in all your righteous needs.
Don’t think I've come to abolish the law or the word,
I’ve come to fulfill it, every line, every chord.
[solo]
[Verse 4]
You’ve heard it said, “Do not kill,” but I say to you,
Even anger and hate can lead you to rue.
You’ve heard it said, “Do not commit adultery,”
But lust in your heart, is sin, you’ll agree.
[solo]
[Chorus]
If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out with pain,
Better to enter heaven, than to face eternal disdain.
Love your enemies, pray for those who do wrong,
Treat them with kindness, let forgiveness be strong.
[solo]
[Verse 5]
Be perfect, as your Father in heaven is pure,
In love and in mercy, let your heart endure.
When you give to the needy, don’t make a show,
Do it in secret, let your true colors glow.
[solo]
[Chorus]
Seek first His kingdom, His righteousness in your quest,
And all these things will be given, in His divine rest.
Build your house on the rock, let it stand the test,
When storms come your way, you’ll be safe and blessed.
[solo]
[Bridge]
Don’t worry about tomorrow, it’ll take care of its own,
Each day has enough trouble, on its own it's shown.
Focus on today, live in faith and grace,
Trust in the Lord, and you'll find your place.
[solo]
[Final Chorus]
Build your house on the rock, it will stand so tall,
When the rains come down and the floods call.
Hear these words of wisdom, let them guide your way,
In the Sermon on the Mount, find light every day.
[solo]
