Blessed
January 22, 2002 11:57 pm

While out running my errands today, with the sun streaming in, I heard this song. I'm pretty sure it isn't a new release but I don't recall ever hearing it before...or maybe it has just taken on a new meaning to me in the last year...I adore Martina McBride ("Happy Girl" is where I got my username from) and this song is just another reminder of WHY I adore her so! I was going to write about these feelings tonight but thought I'd just let her words do it for me.

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 soakin' up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place

I (have been) (am so) 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

When I
When I'm singin' my kids to sleep
When I feel you holdin' me
I know
