    Blessed are the Poor
    Music and Lyric by Penny van Shoick (Socan)

    Blessed are the poor
    Sitting in the lowest seat
    Humbly washing another’s feet
    Quietly rising to serve
    Despised by many -
    Knowing power, wealth and fame -
    Struggling for a lasting name
    In a world which soon will end

    These are the chosen
    So very small in worldly size
    Lovingly cherished in their Father’s eyes
    Yes blessed are the poor

     Blessed are the poor
    Those who know their need for You
    Who have so little to give to You
    But who give You what they have
    Living on their knees
    Knowing a hunger encompassing all
    Humbly living as ones so small
    Yes blessed are the poor
