Blessed Are... Full Lyrics
[00:10.77] Blessed are the one way ticket holders
[00:15.29] On a one way street
[00:19.80] Blessed are the midnight riders
[00:24.32] For in the shadow of God they sleep
[00:33.62] Blessed are the huddled hikers
[00:38.43] Staring out at falling rain
[00:42.91] Wondering at the retribution
[00:46.49] In their personal acquaintance with pain
[00:56.86] Blessed are the blood relations
[01:01.67] Of the young ones who have died
[01:05.94] Who had not the time or patience
[01:10.42] To carry on this earthly ride
[01:19.77] Rain will come and winds will blow
[01:24.21] Wild deer die in the mountain snow
[01:29.03] Birds will beat at heaven's wall
[01:33.65] What comes to one must come to us all
[01:49.85] For you and I are one way ticket holders
[01:54.11] On a one way street
[01:58.95] Which lies across a golden valley
[02:02.98] Where the waters of joy and hope run deep
[02:12.53] So if you pass the parents weeping
[02:17.37] Of the young ones who have died
[02:21.85] Take them to your warmth and keeping
[02:26.40] For blessed are the tears they've cried
[02:33.22] And many were the years they tried
[02:40.47] Take them to that valley wide
[02:47.17] And let their souls be pacified
[02:58.06]
