The Beatitudes?

So, I need a song, quote (please list the author) poem (list the author please), or prayer (author please) that delivers the same message as or reflects upon the beatitude.

4. "Blessed are those who hunger…"
Those that hunger and thirst for what is right are those who desire justice but have not yet received it.

5. "Blessed are the merciful…"
The merciful are those who forgive injuries and pardon those who offend them. Mercy is love shown to the unlovable, and charity to those who have been unjust and ungrateful.

6. "Blessed are the pure in heart…"
The pure in heart are those whose intentions and motivations are always good. They always try to do the loving thing and avoid actions based on hate, envy, anger, etc.

Peacemakers are those who love peace and labour to establish peace all around them; they try to heal discord between people and especially seek to reconcile sinners who are estranged from God.

8. "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness
