[Intro]
[soft piano chords]
Blessed be
Blessed be
[Verse 1 – Male]
Blessed be the poor in spirit
Empty hands
But open wide
Heaven’s favor in the shadows
All the doors you thought had died
Blessed be the ones who’re weeping
Tears that stain the same old floor
Every sob is heard in secret
Every ache is counted
Stored
[Chorus]
Blessed be
Blessed be
You are held when you can’t see
Every hunger
Every need
Finds a home in mystery
Blessed be
Blessed be
In the breaking
You are free
Every promise yet to be
Blessed be
[Verse 2 – Female]
Blessed be the quiet-hearted
Soft reply when tempers rise
Choosing peace instead of power
Carving hope in hardened lives
Blessed be the ones still waiting
For a word to calm the storm
You will stand where love has planted
You will rise where faith is born
[Chorus]
[Bridge – Male & Female]
When you’re mourning what was taken
[Male] When the night feels way too long
[Female] There’s a hand that holds you steady
Together: There’s a love that makes you strong
[low vocal register]
When you’re gentle
When you’re fragile
And the world calls that a curse
He is singing in your weakness
You are richer than the earth
[Chorus]
