I Have Been Blessed

My sister-in-law, Jessica told me about this song recently but I didn't have a chance to really sit down and listen to the whole thing until today. Wow...what a great message this song has. Check it out!



When He moves among us, all that He does
All of His mercy and all of His love
If the pen of a writer could write every day
Even this world could never contain
How I've been blessed

Warmth in the winter, flowers in spring,
The laughter of summer, the changing of leaves,
Food on my table, and a good place to sleep,
Clothes on my back and shoes on my feet
I have been blessed

Chorus
I have been blessed, God's so good to me
Precious are His thoughts of you and me
No way I could count them, there's not enough time
So I'll just thank Him for being so kind
God has been good, so good
I have been blessed

Arms that will raise, a voice that can talk,
Hands that can touch, legs that can walk,
Ears that can listen and eyes that can see,
I've got to praise Him as long as I breathe
I have been blessed

Mother and father, nurtured and raised,
Sisters and brothers, memories made
Our pastor to lead us, this altar to pray,
The stripes that can heal, the blood that STILL SAVES
I have been blessed

Chorus

We live in a country, the greatest on earth
Our flag stands for FREEDOM and what it is worth
She stands in the harbor, Ms. Liberty calls
All have given some, but some gave it all
So we could be blessed

He's my shoulder to lean on when I am down,
The rock where He leads me when I'm overwhelmed,
The place where He hides me under His wing,
He's not just a song, He's the reason I sing
I have been blessed

Chorus
