Heaven Is Yours lyrics by Jon Foreman

VERSE 1
Blessed are the poor in heart
Heaven is yours
Blessed are you broken ones
Who ain’t fake anymore
Blessed are the meek
The earth is your inheritance
Blessed when you’re thirsting for
That kind of righteousness

CHORUS
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours
Heaven is yours like this
Heaven is yours like this

VERSE 2
Blessed are the merciful
With mercy’s prize
Blessed are the pure in heart
With God in your eyes
Blessed are the peacemakers
The children of light
Blessed when you don’t fit in anymore
'Cause you wanna do right

BRIDGE
Where your treasure is
Is where your heart goes
What your measure is
Shapes your sorrow
Where your pleasure is
Is what you follow
Where your treasure is
Is where your heart goes

BRDGE 2
What does your heart want
What does your heart want
What does your heart want
Heaven is yours like this
