1 Blessed are they who do His commandments,
They shall claim the tree of life;
Into the city they shall enter,
They are victors in the strife.

Refrain:
Blessed, blessed,
Blessed are they,
Into the city they shall enter,
Blessed, blessed, blessed are they.

2 Blessed are they who do His commandments,
They shall wear the robes of white;
Under the portals God shall lead them,
They shall serve Him day and night. [Refrain]

3 Blessed are they who do His commandments,
They shall stand before the throne;
Into the life of joy eternal,
God shall claim them for His own. [Refrain]
