The last song to cover in Brian Boniwell’s collection, Spirit of Love, is this reflection on the Beatitudes.
Contact him at boniwell@aapt.net.au if you want a copy of the sheet music. I’ve found sound samples for all the songs on this album here.
1 Blessed are the poor in spirit, those who seek to know you.
Blessed are the lowly ones who trust you in their need.
Blessed are the gentle hearts for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed those who know my peace and give it to the world.
2 Blessed are the hearts of mercy, they shall know forgiveness.
blessed are the pure on heart, who seek to live my ways.
They shall see the face of God, and come to share in my love.
Blessed those who weep and mourn, for i shall comfort them.
