Bible Reading
Matthew 5.1-8
The Beatitudes
When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came
to him. Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:
‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
‘Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
‘Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
‘Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.
‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

Father of the eternal Word, in whose encompassing love all things in peace and order move, grant
that as your servant John Keble adored you in all creation, so we may have a humble heart of love
for the mysteries of your Church and know your love to be new every morning, in Jesus Christ
your Son our Lord; Amen.
