Godspell - Beatitudes

Here is 'Bless the Lord' and Beatitudes from Godspell. The root word for Beatitudes is 'Beatus' from Latin meaning happy and prosperous.
We are promised happiness - blessings - if we live by the Lord's precepts as stated in Psalm 1:

1 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.

I always thought it was a mistake for producers to make a movie out of a broadway play. But Godspell in my opinion was successfully done.

Yep - that is the 'Chief' - and yes - the note she hits at the end of this song - blows my mind!

@slipkid24393 Jesus already knew where his path would lead him. The way I see it, Judas's beatitude hit too close to home for him, and Judas knew it.

"It says Keds."

@slipkid24393 I imagine Judas had figured out where Jesus is going, and is angry he isn't turning back.
