I'm blessed; I've made it through a storm;
the ones life puts us through.
I'm blessed to have my first child;
at the age of forty-two.

I'm blessed that my car is paid for,
no car notes to be done.
I'm blessed to have food to eat;
it's been times, I didn't have none.

I'm blessed, when I woke up this morning,
my eyes, they could see.
I'm blessed, when I stood to walk;
my feet could carry me.

I'm blessed for every breath I take;
no machines helping me.

I'm blessed to have a toilet inside my house;
growing-up, our toilet was outside,
called the outhouse.

I'm blessed that I'm in my right mind;
I can make decisions on my own.
I'm blessed to have a roof over my head,
a place of peace, called home.

I'm blessed; my husband is a good provider,
he's gentle and patient too.
In spite of all my imperfections,
his love is kind and true.

I'm blessed!
