Blessed
Blessed
I do not take for granted
I wouldn’t even dare
Your love and your devotion
Oh yes, I am aware
Of the fact that they remain the same
Or better said, they keep growing
Into something deeper, stronger too
The evidence is showing
I can’t ignore the impact of
Your affection on my essence
Watch how I blossom, this all due
To being in your presence
An honor, that is what it is
An advantage and a gift
It wasn’t until I was blessed
That I could feel a shift
All doubts and fears have disappeared
I stare life in the face
Even loneliness and sadness
Have vanished in a haze
I want to recognize all this
Yes, all of it I treasure
I’m fortunate, I must admit
I’m grateful beyond measure
What better way to recompense
For a love that’s so divine?
I feel indebted, deeply too
So I humbly give you mine.
