Blessed, Blessed — Finale
From the album ·The Beatitudes Jam
📖 Matthew 5:3-12
Every blessing sung back at once, full choir, lights up. The sermon ends the way it started: with a list of people the world overlooked.

Lyrics
Written by Carl Hicks Jr. / SESAC [Intro] (filtered gospel-disco sample begins low-passed and muffled, vinyl crackle, tape wobble, soft Rhodes chords, four-on-the-floor kick fading in, distant choir fragments from earlier songs circling through the mix, mono-leaning) Blessed are the poor in spirit Blessed are they that mourn Blessed are the meek Blessed are they that hunger The kingdom is open The comfort is near The promise is living The pathway is clear [Build] (filter slowly opens, chopped choir phrases from each Beatitude begin layering, warm bass locks with the kick, claps enter on two and four, disco strings rise, tambourine shakes, tension building) Blessed are the merciful Blessed are the pure in heart Blessed are the peacemakers Blessed when the pressure starts They may call you foolish For walking in His way But every word He promised Is still alive today [Groove] (full drop — bright gospel-disco groove, stacked choir call-and-response, warm bass, crisp hats, tight claps, Rhodes bounce, offbeat string stabs, sidechain pumping, dusty euphoric praise-floor energy) Blessed, blessed Standing in His word Blessed, blessed Living what we heard Blessed in the sorrow Blessed in the fight Blessed when we show mercy Blessed when we choose right Poor in spirit You receive the kingdom Those who mourn You shall be comforted Meek and humble You shall inherit Hungry for righteousness You shall be filled [Bridge] (filter closes, drums disappear, choir voices answer one another over Rhodes, vinyl crackle grows louder, bass hums low, reversed strings slowly rise) Merciful You shall obtain mercy Pure in heart You shall see God Peacemakers Children of the Father Persecuted The kingdom is yours When they speak against you falsely Rejoice and be exceeding glad For great is your reward in heaven [Peak] (everything returns fullest — complete mass choir, bright disco strings, punchy kick, warm bass, tambourine, handclaps, brass accents, layered harmony stacks, heavier tape saturation, wide celebratory finale) Blessed, blessed Let the whole room sing Blessed, blessed We belong to the King Blessed in the waiting Blessed when we stand Blessed when we keep His teaching Written in our hands Rejoice and be glad Great is your reward Rejoice and be glad Keep walking with the Lord Blessed in the morning Blessed through the night Blessed when the whole world Tries to pull you from the light Kingdom in our living Mercy in our tone Peace inside our footsteps Truth inside our homes Blessed, blessed Every promise stands Blessed, blessed We are in His hands [Outro] (filter slowly closes, hats leave first, tambourine fades, claps disappear, kick drops last, choir fragments from every track dissolve into long reverb tails, Rhodes and bass decay beneath vinyl crackle) Blessed are the poor in spirit For theirs is the kingdom of heaven Blessed are the pure in heart For they shall see God Rejoice and be glad Great is your reward Blessed Blessed Blessed
