You shall cross the barren desert, but you shall not die of
thirst.
You shall wander far in safety though you do not know the
way.
You shall speak your words in foreign lands and all will
understand.
You shall see the face of God and live.
Be not afraid, I go before you always.
Come follow me, and I will give you rest.
If you pass through raging waters in the sea, you shall not
drown.
If you walk amid the burning flames, you shall not be
harmed.
If you stand before the power of hell, and death is at your
side,
Know that I am with you through it all.
Blessed are your poor, for the Kingdom shall be theirs.
Blessed are you that weep and mourn, for one day you shall
laugh.
And if wicked men insult and hate you all because of me,
Blessed, blessed are you.
