Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they strive to bring order to a world of chaos and uncertainty,
They bring hope to those whose guardians have rejected them and forced them to a live a life without choice.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they lift up their hearts and show no fear in the face of menace and oppression,
They walk among those who nurture only lies, steadfast in their pursuit of truth and justice.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they feel the pain of hunger, subjugation, torture and grief,
They serve only to ease the burden of life that others must endure.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they know that love will prevail over tyranny and terror,
They ask nothing for themselves, but without question give their lives to humanity.

Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they believe in freedom and the sanctity of life,
They die so that others may live.
