Sometimes in life our days get dreary,
And we feel that we are pressed,
Then Jesus sends the sunshine,
And we know that we are blessed.
Sometimes we feel down and out,
Like we have no zeal or zest,
Then the Holy Spirit lifts us up,
And we know that we are blessed.
Sometimes we feel like we can't go on,
That we'd like to quit and rest,
Then the Lord provides us strength anew,
And we know that we are blessed.
Sometimes we feel like failures,
That we could not pass the test,
Then He helps us up to try again,
And we know that we are blessed.
Sometimes we feel like we're in a storm,
A raging wild tempest,
Then Jesus calms the fierce winds,
And we know that we are blessed.
Sometimes we feel like giving up,
Like pointless uselessness,
Then Jesus finds a use for us,
And we know that we are blessed.
When parents hold their children,
Close up to their breast,
And see the gift that God has gave them,
They know that they are blessed.
When we wake up to the dawning,
Of a day so new and fresh,
When we've been given another day,
We know that we are blessed.
When we stop to bow our heads to pray,
And we give the Lord our best,
We feel the touch of the Master's hand,
And we know that we are blessed.
On the day that we see Jesus,
Coming ore the eastern crest,
And we're caught up in the rapture,
We will know that we are blessed.
When we dine at the Master's table,
As a special, honored guest,
And He makes us one of His family,
We will know that we are blessed.
If we consider all that God has given us,
If we would simply stop to assess,
We would see beyond the slightest doubt,
That we are truly blessed.
