I have been blessed

Every morning we sing together and Mom reads a chapter (or two or three ;) from a book to us. Recently we have been working on learning a new song as well. We heard this song at a church camp and I love it. I am really enjoying memorizing it. It's called, I Have Been Blessed. 


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 everyday, even this world could never contain how I've been blessed. 


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

I have been blessed. God is so good to me. Precious are His thoughts for 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 and legs that can walk. Ears that can listen, eyes that can see. Oh I've got to praise Him as long as I breathe. I have been blessed. 


A father and mother who nurtured and raised. A brother and sister, memories made. Our pastor to lead us, the altar to pray. Stripes that can heal, the blood that still saves. I have been blessed. 

I have been blessed. God is so good to me. Precious are His thoughts for 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. 


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 wings. He's not just a song, He's the reason I sing. I have been blessed. 

I have been blessed. God is so good to me. Precious are His thoughts for 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. 


Have any of you heard any new songs recently that have blessed you?

  3. The words to that song are beautiful! They kind of go along the same lines as a blog post I did recently (www.savedbygrace08-05-10.blogspot.com/2015/07/ye-are-blessed.html) though they're more in depth and better written. :) Blessings, Annetta
