For the 2nd Week - En

Refrain:
Blessed are those who have mercy,
Who give to the poor and fast and pray,
The Holy Spirit will fill their hearts,
The Son will show them mercy on Judgment Day.

Or

Blessed are those who have mercy,
From God they shall obtain mercy,
On Judgment Day Christ will set them
apart,
May His Holy Spirit fill all their heart.

Jesus fasted in the wilderness,
For forty nights and forty days,
Teaching us to follow in His path,
And walk in the narrow and righteous ways.

When Jesus showed great hunger,
The tempter came to Him and said,
If You are truly the Son of God,
Change this stone to a loaf of bread.

Jesus said to Satan, It is written,
By bread alone man shall not live,
The Word of God will fill his needs,
Eternal life the Lord will give.

Blessed are those ...

The devil took Jesus to the temple,
And said as You stand in this holy place,
If truly You are the Son of God,
Throw Yourself from here to the base.

For God will send His mighty angels,
To watch over those who are His own,
To give protection and support,
Your feet will not touch any stone.

Jesus said to him, it is written,
You should not try to tempt the Lord,
For He is your Maker and Creator,
And you cannot withstand His sword.

Blessed are those ...

The devil became weary and confused,
Why would the Lord hunger and fast,
And wondered if this was the Messiah,
Who came to save the world at last.

So he took Him to a high mountain,
The glory of the world under Him to see,
And said all this I shall give you,
If You bow down and worship me.

Then Jesus said, "Be gone you devil,
One shall worship God and not Satan,"
The devil departed as the angels,
Came to serve the blessed Son of man.

Refrain:
Blessed are those who have mercy,
Who give to the poor and fast and pray,
The Holy Spirit will fill their hearts,
The Son will show them mercy on Judgment Day.
