Blessed
Remembering a cold and damp February morn
On the Monday that my first child was born
I prayed as a father, I’d do my best
And I thanked God, I was so blessed
The following year in the beginning of November
Another son. a morning to remember
The coming Christmas would be the best
We had two sons, we were truly blessed
As they grew my heart overflowed
Praying they would choose the right road
Twelve years later in spite of my sins
God had blessed us again with the birth of our twins
Our children now numbered four with my head all awhirl
I now had three sons and Daddy’s little girl
Sometimes when life’s problems have me overstressed
I look at their photographs and know I was blessed.
