Blessed are you who are called to educate
For you walk in the footsteps of the Master.
Blessed are you who sow peace and harmony
In the staffroom,
Yours will be the joy of the Lord.
Blessed are you who plant seeds of hope
In youthful hearts,
For you inherit the dawn.
Blessed are you who are sensitive
To the cries of youth today,
For they yearn for the coming of My kingdom.
Blessed are you when you share
Your faith with others,
For your name is written in My Heart.
Blessed are you who anguish now
Because your students are difficult,
For one day they will thank you for your loving concern.
Blessed are you when efficiency
Is moderated by compassion and empathy,
For the deeper secret of education is yours.
Blessed are you when you reach out to me
In your students,
For you will surely find me and rejoice.
Blessed are you who lead young people
In paths of justice and peace,
For you will shine like stars for all eternity.
