Blessed are you who are depleted, who have nothing,
for God will give you everything.
Blessed are you who are broken-hearted,
for in through those cracks seeps God.
Blessed are you who have no power in this world,
for God has power in you.
Blessed are you who despair of justice ever coming,
for justice will come.
Blessed are you who offer grace,
for you will live in grace.
Blessed are you who live by love alone,
for you will meet God.
Blessed are you who bring about healing,
for the name of God will shine in you.
Blessed are you when the world is against you,
for God is for you, so deeply for you.
[see Matthew 5.1-12]
