Blessed Are the Ones |
We’re tossing pennies in the well, empty pockets all turned out. |
Happy shining blessed are the ones who hunger. |
When our poverty is plain, I’ll try to burn it in my brain. |
Trace a line around your face to paint a picture. |
So further up and further in we have nowhere else to go. |
As we plant the seeds of toil and tears, it’s beauty we will sow. |
Blessed are the ones, Oh blessed are the ones. |
Blessed are the hungry ones. |
Let’s build a house with turned out doors, so we can share what love affords. |
Pour ourselves out like a wine that we’ve been saving. |
So, when our well is running dry, and when we raise our glasses high |
happy, shining are the faces of the thirsty. |
So further up and further in we have nowhere else to go. |
But you give us seeds of toil and tears, it’s beauty we will sow. |
and blessed are the ones, Oh, blessed are the ones. |
Blessed are the thirsty ones. |
Love is all, love is all, love is all, yeah, love is all, love is all we need. |
So further up and further in we have no place else to go. |
And when all we have is what we need, its joy that we will sow. |
Blessed are the ones, Oh, blessed are the ones, |
Blessed are the hungry ones. |
We are blessed, yeah. |
