about

This beatitude is the one I found most convicting -- do I have the single motive of glorifying God in EVERYTHING I do?? Very heart-searching.

lyrics

. Poor in Spirit
Chorus:
All my righteousness is as filthy rags,
There is nothing good in me!
Take these sin-stained rags,
Cast them far away,
Let the righteousness of Jesus cover me!
Make me rich in grace, Poor in spirit;
Humbled, broken, empty of me.
Rich in Christ! Poor in spirit –
May His righteousness cover me.

Bridge:
”Nothing in my hand I bring,
To Thy cross & crown I cling!
Naked come to Thee for dress,
Weary look to Thee for rest.!

”Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy laws demands,
All for sin could not atone,
Thou must save, and Thou alone!”
(Chorus)

Tag#1: “And this is the one to whom I will look
To this one,” says the Lord—
“To him who is humble, and contrite of spirit,
And who trembles…who trembles at my word!”

Tag #2:
And theirs is the kingdom of Heaven!
His rule & reign on earth begun
Shall through timeless ages run,
And He shall reign forever & ever!!!

Repeat 1st stanza & chorus
