Count Your Blessings

Count Your Blessings Sometimes it is very easy to get down And not give too much thought to just why The sadness I feel just seems to come And produces a mournful sigh It can be because I am lonely Or that my children don’t come or call There can be a thousand reasons I guess I have never really stopped to count them all Sometimes I just sit down and mope And then I am feeling sorry for me That is not the best thing to do I have found If I asked I am sure you would agree I’ve been told I should count my blessings And I am sure that would be one thing to do I do have some if I just looked around Quite a few and more then just one or two There is a particular one to begin Let me see, you just said it today The best blessing I’ve heard in a while Oh yes, it was this morning….. "I opened my eyes today” I thank you with all of my heart What a gentle reminder from you God gave me so much in this life And I have so much left I can do Connie Moore December 25, 2015
