MOST RICHLY BLESSED
Author(s): Paul Michael
Songbook: Word Tape Songs
KeyWords: Thankfulness,

Sometimes I wonder when things go so wrong,
Has God forsaken and left me alone?
Then I remember through trials and distress
He's always with me,
I'm most richly blessed.

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve;
I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey.
I asked for health, that I might do greater things;
I was given infirmity, that I might do better things.
I asked for riches, that I might be happy;
I was given poverty, that I might be wise.
I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men;
I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God.
I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life;
I was given life, that I might enjoy all things.
I got nothing that I asked for, but everything that I had hoped for.
And almost despite myself,
My unspoken prayers were answered.
I am among all men most richly blessed.

He's always with me,
I'm most richly blessed.
