God showers me with blessings -
too many to be named.
And He has given me so much -
so much, I am ashamed.

Though I can lose possessions,
(some former wants and needs) -
I'm steered to where I wish not go,
as my Creator leads.

I'm made to walk in valleys deep,
so great, the length and breadth -
and made to go to distant lengths,
and sometimes near to death.

He shows me all that I had missed,
to understand the scene.
He makes me walk on water,
and through His pastures green.

This sight, none can imagine,
to peer beyond the skies -
to view what can't be understand
with selfish, simple eyes.

His blessings once confused me,
and camouflaged my pride.
and I just couldn't see His love,
'till I set 'me' aside.

Oh, God has showered blessings,
too many to be named -
and He has given me so much -
so much, I am ashamed.

His greatest blessing ever,
so many years before -
was that He gave His only Son...
What blessing is worth more?
