I haven’t done country song lyrics in a while. I heard this familiar song by Martina McBride on the way to work this morning and it sounded apropo.

Blessed

I get kissed by the sun each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughing
Down the hall through the bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my front porch swing
Just soaking up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place

I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank god for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
to be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

Across a crowded room
I know you know what I’m thinking
By the way I look at you
And when we’re lying in the quiet
And no words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift

I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank god for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
to be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

When I’m singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know

I have been blessed
And I feel like I’ve found my way
I thank god for all I’ve been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
to be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed
