Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Amen.
I got the choir to sing this for our wedding during the signing of the stuff. Mainly because of the massive "Rejoice!". Some of the choir hated me for it but they did a fantastic job
Blessed are those with peaceful hearts for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are you when you hunger and thirst for goodness and for contact with the Father within you, because then you will surely be filled up a hundred times over. Blessed are you when you are attacked and robbed because you will see God-in-action when you stand still in perfect trust and see deliverance taking place. Blessed are you when you are caught up in conflict, yet you can still care about your fellow man and be the peace maker. You carry the Love in your heart which is of the Father and you are truly a child of the Father. Blessed are you when you have been deeply wronged by another yet can forgive and can show mercy, abstaining from seeking justice or the means to persecute him. You put yourself directly in harmony with the Love which is God-active-within you and even so will you be spared in times of trouble. Most blessed of all are the pure in heart, for such as these have rid themselves of all anger, hatred, vindictiveness, unkindness, envy, hardness of heart and stand before the world as Love-made-visible. They will know the Reality of God and they will know the Reality is the Father within them.
THE BETITUDES: the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (5:3) those who mourn: for they will be comforted the meek: for they shall inherit the earth they who hunger and thirst for righteousness: for they will be satisfied the merciful: for they will be shown mercy the pure in heart: for they shall see God the peacemakers: for they shall be called children of God those who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
We have slightly changed our definition of the word “blessed”. It means “God’s favor”, and that makes so much more sense, especially if “the last shall be first, and the first shall be last”. 🥰
Can't listen to this without coming to tears. The lyrics are the word of God and its just done perfectly.
god does not really exist, the music is right

Amen.
Such a good version too, good performance.

Oh no. Sorry I don't like this translation at all.
@Unbihexium What a fascinating comment..... Thank you for sharing it with me.
Am I really watching a commercial, featuring a song from Illmatic, before an Arvo Part video?
Music for a cathedral

yea, what she said.
"The Beatitudes" sounds like a significantly more upbeat and swingy song than it is
Burdan müzik öğretmenime sesleniyorum ben bunu nasıl öğrenciyim dinlerken uykum geliyor aq
This interpretation is a tad lacking in vitality and ecstatic intensity, IMO.
