"I Have Been Blessed"

This is one of me and my brother's favorite songs.
^^^^^^^^^^^(is that correct grammar??)
I miss my brother when I'm listening to this song.
{Tonight has been one week since he left...one week down, three more to go!}

When He moves among us, all that He does
All of His mercy, all of His love
If the pen of a writer, could write every day
Even this world, could never contain
How I've been blessed.

Warmth in the winter, flowers in spring
Laughter of summer, the changing of leaves
Food on my table and a good place to sleep
Clothes on back and shoes on my feet.
I have been blessed.

{Chorus}
I have been blessed, God's so good to me
Precious are His thoughts of you and me
No way I could count them, there's not enough time
So I'll just thank Him, for being so kind
God has been good, so good
I have been blessed.

Arms that will raise, a voice that can talk
Hands that can touch, legs that can walk
Ears that can listen, eyes that can see
Oh I've got to praise Him as long as I breathe
I have been blessed.

We live in a country, greatest on earth
Where the flag stands for freedom and what it is worth
She stands in a harbor, Miss Liberty calls,
"All gave some but some gave it all,"
So we could be blessed.


{Chorus}
I have been blessed, God's so good to me
Precious are His thoughts of you and me
No way I could count them there's not enough time
So I'll just thank Him for being so kind
God has been good, so good
I have been blessed.

A mother and father, nurtured and raised
Sister and brother, memories made
Our pastor to lead us, this altar to pray
Stripes that can heal, the blood that still saves
I have been blessed.

He's my shoulder to lean on when I am down
The rock where He leads me when I'm overwhelmed
The place where He hides me, under His wing
He's not just a song, He's the reason I sing
I have been blessed.

Oh I have been blessed, God's so good to me
Precious are His thoughts of you and me
No way I could count them, there's not enough time
So I'll just thank Him for being so kind
God has been good, so good
I have been blessed.

God has been good, so good
I have been blessed.
