Blessed Are Those Who Follow You
Chris Renzema's song "Blessed Are Those Who Follow You" is a contemporary worship piece that reflects on the Beatitudes from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. The lyrics list the blessed—the poor, mourning, meek, and pure in heart—and affirm that God is present with them. The chorus offers encouragement to the tired and weary, reminding listeners that Jesus blesses those who follow Him. The song emphasizes perseverance and the promise of renewal, with a gentle, uplifting tone that invites trust in God's care.
Blessed are the poor
For theirs is the Kingdom
And blessed are those who mourn
For You're right there beside them
And blessed are the meek
For the earth is theirs
And blessed are those who seek
For You will find them here
You'll find them here
Are you feeling tired?
Are you feeling worn?
Well, hallelujah, His table's set
With the meek and the poor
Are you feeling weary?
You wanna be reborn?
Well, just keep on pressing through
'Cause Jesus, blessed are those who follow You
Blessed are the kind
For kindness they'll be shown
Blessed are the pure in heart
For by You they'll be known
And blessed are the peaceful
For You call them Your child
And blessed are the hard-pressed
'Cause like diamonds, they will shine
They will shine
Are you feeling tired?
Are you feeling worn?
Well, hallelujah, His table's set
With the meek and the poor
Are you feeling weary?
You wanna be reborn?
Well, just keep on pressing through
'Cause Jesus, blessed are those who follow You
