TITLE: Blessings and Woes METER: Blessings and Woes 7.7.7.6.7.7.8.6 LITURGICAL SETTING: Gathering Hymn SCRIPTURAL REFERENCE: Luke 6:20-26

1.Blessed are you who are poor;

yours is the kin-dom of God.

Blessed are you who hunger,

for you shall be fed.

Blessed are you who weep now;

you will be filled with laughter.

Blessed are you when people curse.

So they treat the prophets.


2. Woe unto you who are rich;

you have received your treasure.

Woe unto you who are full,

for you shall hunger.

Woe unto you who laugh now;

you will be turned to mourning.

Woe unto you when people praise.

So they treat false prophets.
