Godspell - Beatitudes
Here is ‘Bless the Lord’ and Beatitudes from Godspell. The root word for Beatitudes is ‘Beatus’ from Latin meaning happy and prosperous. We are promised happiness - blessings - if we live by the Lord’s precepts as stated in Psalm 1: 1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
