Blessed the meek, blessed the doer, blessed the teacher, blessed the rule, blessed the times of death and despair, blessed this love shone everywhere, blessed the winter before the bloom, blessed the fool summer turns us to, blessed the wine four seasons make, blessed the hand that loses the grain. Amen. Amen. Blessed the baby lost in the womb, blessed the lovers in their secret room, blessed the kindness I have received, blessed the raindrop, blessed the sea, blessed the wretched, blessed the split, blessed the ankle, chains freed from it, blessed the mess you've made of it all, blessed the dance beneath a disco ball. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Blessed the woman, blessed the man, blessed these blessings way beyond our hands, blessed wherever we've come from, blessed be all the sun shines upon. Amen.
