Beatitudes

(youtube)                                                                            

Blessed are they who go their own way,                     
Even if the road must be walked alone;
They will find signposts to guide them.

Blessed are they who escape the clutches,
Of the ever watchful men in black;
The good shepherd will some day find you.

Blessed are they who dive into the mud,
Not knowing whether they’ll sink or swim;
The Baptist will cleanse them in the holy river.

Blessed are they who wrestle with devils,
When no one else even knows their names;
Their struggle will one day be over.                           

Blessed are they who drink new wine;
For they shall be drunk on God.

Blessed are they who heal themselves,
Before they seek to heal the world;
Their honesty shall be rewarded.

Blessed are they who do what they must do,
Not even knowing it is their fate;
Their love of life will see them through.

Blessed are they to whom madness has come,
They did not have to search for God;
Grant us strength Lord that we may follow.

Blessed are they who drink new wine;
For they shall be drunk on God.
Blessed are they who drink new wine;                       
For they shall be drunk on God.
