Verse 1
In a world filled with pride and division,
where compassion is drowned out by harsh words,
Christ calls to us with His gentle voice:
“My child, walk in My love.”
Do not be troubled because of evildoers,
nor let anger cause you to stumble;
trust in the Lord and do what is good,
and His peace will dwell within you.
Pre-Chorus
Take delight in the Lord,
and entrust your way to Him in love;
He will make your righteousness shine forth,
for those who walk in His holy will.
Chorus
Lord, grant me Your meekness,
Your humility and compassion;
may every step that I take
reflect the goodness of Your Heart.
Make me steadfast in the truth,
yet always filled with charity;
may my words and all my actions
speak forever of Your peace.
Verse 2
Blessed are the meek, the Lord declared,
for they shall inherit the earth;
and find delight in abundant peace,
as the psalmist faithfully teaches us.
When I am judged and misunderstood,
or mocked because I follow You,
teach me, Jesus, how to respond
with meekness, love, and truth.
I do not seek victory through power,
nor revenge when I suffer wrong;
I desire only to follow Your voice
and find my rest in God alone.
Pre-Chorus
Take delight in the Lord,
and entrust your way to Him in love;
He will make your righteousness shine forth,
for those who walk in His holy will.
Chorus
Lord, grant me Your meekness,
Your humility and compassion;
may every step that I take
reflect the goodness of Your Heart.
Make me steadfast in the truth,
yet always filled with charity;
may my words and all my actions
speak forever of Your peace.
Bridge
“Learn from Me,” the Savior says,
“for I am meek and humble of heart;”
and you shall find rest for your souls
if you remain within My love.
The meek shall inherit the earth,
and find delight in abundant peace;
for they place their hope in the Lord,
and rest secure in His faithfulness.
Final Chorus
Lord, grant me Your meekness,
holy fruit of Your Spirit;
that in a divided world
I may become an instrument of Your light.
Let pride never overcome me,
nor anger take hold of my heart;
may all who see my life behold Christ
in the way that I love.
Ending
Meek like Christ, humble of heart,
guided by the Spirit and upheld by His love;
trusting in the Father through every trial,
proclaiming His Gospel with peace and conviction.
The meek shall inherit the earth,
and find delight in abundant peace;
blessed be the Lord forever,
unto the ages of ages. Amen.
“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.”
“Learn from Me, for I am meek and humble of heart.”
