Blessed are the peacemakers, <br />For they strive to bring order to a world of chaos and uncertainty, <br />They bring hope to those whose guardians have rejected them and forced them to a live a life without choice. <br /> <br />Blessed are the peacemakers, <br />For they lift up their hearts and show no fear in the face of menace and oppression, <br />They walk among those who nurture only lies, steadfast in their pursuit of truth and justice. <br /> <br />Blessed are the peacemakers, <br />For they feel the pain of hunger, subjugation, torture and grief, <br />They serve only to ease the burden of life that others must endure. <br /> <br />Blessed are the peacemakers, <br />For they know that love will prevail over tyranny and terror, <br />They ask nothing for themselves, but without question give their lives to humanity. <br /> <br />Blessed are the peacemakers, <br />For they believe in freedom and the sanctity of life, <br />They die so that others may live.<br /><br />Teedy Dawn<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/blessed-are-the-peacemakers/
