美國鄉村樂歌姬［瑪蒂娜．麥布萊］──鄉村流行／軟式搖滾曲──［Blessed／受祝福］

I get kissed by the sun each morning
Put my feet on a hardwood floor
I get to hear my children laughin
Down the hall through the bedroom door
Sometimes I sit on my front porch swing
Just soakin up the day
I think to myself, I think to myself
This world is a beautiful place

I have been blessed
And I feel like Ive found my way
I thank God for all Ive been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

Across a crowded room
I know you know what Im thinkin
By the way I look at you
And when were lying in the quiet
And no words have to be said
I think to myself, I think to myself
This love is a beautiful gift

I have been blessed
And I feel like Ive found my way
I thank God for all Ive been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed

When I, When Im singing my kids to sleep
When I feel you holding me
I know

I am so blessed
And I feel like Ive found my way
I thank God for all Ive been given
At the end of every day
I have been blessed
With so much more than I deserve
To be here with the ones that love me
To love them so much it hurts
I have been blessed oh, yes
I have been blessed, oh, yeah, yeah

(I have been blessed, I have been blessed

I have been blessed, I have been blessed)
