Blessed

It's quiet all around, the only sound here in the silence Are the snowflakes falling down Just like glitter on the ground Another year's come around Got me thinking back about the times when I had nothing But big dreams still in my head That were hanging by a thread That fueled desire in my chest But I'm blessed Looking in the eyes of my children (blessed) Surrounded by the love I've been given (blessed) Don't wanna take a moment for granted Sometimes it's so easy To forget, to be grateful for the life I've been living (blessed) I'm learning to have faith in forgiving (blessed) Sometimes I lift my heart to the heavens Just so I remember that I'm blessed Here we are, together, taking time for one another Underneath the Christmas tree Sweeter than a symphony It means everything to me Sharing all our stories of our failures and our glories Even when our hopes got torn We made it through the storm And I couldn't ask for more 'Cause I'm blessed Looking in the eyes of my children (blessed) Surrounded by the love I've been given (blessed) Don't wanna take a moment for granted Sometimes it's so easy To forget, to be grateful for the life I've been living (blessed) I'm learning to have faith in forgiving (blessed) Sometimes I lift my heart to the heavens When I'm down, and I'm lost, and I'm tired When it feels the whole world is on fire Close my eyes and imagine a choir Even when I feel like a mess Have to take a good look inside me, yes In the hurts where I found the Holy, I guess I'll never be perfect, but I try my best To remember I'm blessed Looking in the eyes of my children Surrounded by the love I've been given Don't wanna take a moment for granted Sometimes it's so easy To forget, to be grateful for the life I've been living I'm learning to have faith in forgiving Sometimes I lift my heart to the Heavens Just so I remember That I'm blessed
