.~~~ Today When I Counted My Blessing ~~~

.~~~ TODAY WHEN I COUNTED MY BLESSING ~~~

WHEN I PAUSED TO COUNT MY BLESSINGS TODAY
I STOPPED AND I THOUGHT OF YOU.
AND I REMEMBERED ALL THE MEANING YOU GAVE
THAT HELPED ME SEE LIFE ANEW.


I THOUGHT OF ALL THE PEOPLE IN THIS LIFE
THAT HAS NO FRIENDS TO CALL THEIR OWN,
I THOUGHT OF ALL THE HEARTACHES IN LIFE
AND PEOPLE THAT FEEL ALL ALONE.


I THOUGHT OF GODS AMAZING GRACE ON EARTH
THAT HELPS US MAKE IT THROUGH EACH DAY,
I THOUGHT OF ALL THE SINNERS OUT THERE
THAT HAVE YET TO TURN GODS WAY.


I THOUGHT OF ALL THE TRIALS PEOPLE SUFFER
THAT NEVER SEEMS TO EVER DEPART.
AND I THOUGHT OF ALL THE FRIENDS GOD GAVE
TO BRING JOY AND LOVE TO MY HEART.

THANK YOU JESUS,FOR EVERY BLESSING HERE
NO MATTER HOW BIG OR HOW SMALL.
PLEASE HELP ME TO BE A BLESSING TO OTHERS
AND HELP ME BE THERE IF THEY SHOULD FALL.
