Matthew 5:5
They knew what they were doing that night was evil
Perhaps with faith the shepherd may forgive them still
Only the sheep who follow will find their true worth
But not with hate filled hearts where gentle love is dearth
Your spirit is a life eternity can't kill
Before he died for you he left it in his will
When Jesus said the meek shall inherit the earth
And Gods eternal love will fill your soul with mirth
Perhaps with faith the shepherd may forgive them still
Only the sheep who follow will find their true worth
But not with hate filled hearts where gentle love is dearth
Your spirit is a life eternity can't kill
Before he died for you he left it in his will
When Jesus said the meek shall inherit the earth
And Gods eternal love will fill your soul with mirth
