Unworthy, Yet Blessed
“Blessed are the poor in spirit”
I am broken by my pride and arrogance
How should I ever see the kingdom of heaven
“Blessed are those who mourn”
My sins and offenses are innumerable
Why would I deserve comfort
“Blessed are the meek”
I struggle with anger and aggression
What makes me worthy of any inheritance
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness”
Righteousness slips through my finger like sand
How can a void be filled
“Blessed are the merciful”
My thirst for vengeance consumes me
Why would mercy be shown me
Blessed are the pure in heart
I lust for more and more
What is my chance of seeing the holy
“Blessed are the peacemakers”
Violence and broken relationships litter my life
How can I be called a child of God
“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness”
Too few are the times I stood for what is just and right
Why would I gain the kingdom of heaven
“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me”
I have abandoned Your Way so many times
What makes a man such as myself worthy to be blessed
The Blood of the Lamb
Atones for all
I repent!
