I look up to the people

I look up to the people
by Joel Howard
see related:  Matthew 5

I look up to the people who are poor 
Who give while having nothing in store 
Though the rich have plenty, they have more 
I look up to the people who are poor

I look up to the people who grieve 
Who can't laugh at a single thing 
Except in gratitude for the air they breathe 
I look up to the people who grieve

I look up to the people who are singled out
For the sake of Christ and at them the evil shout
Who wince at the sound of whips about 
I look up to the people who are singled out

I look up to the people who make peace 
Who argue not a single thing 
Who give without gain expecting 
I look up to the people who make peace 
Yes these are the people who impress me
