When grief blinds me to my blessings
Please God open my eyes to see
All that I have surrounding me.
So many who love me dearly and care
Who want to share in this battle I’m facing
Help me to overcome and win
This desperate struggle I find myself in
To bring me out of this valley of shadow
Into the sunshine of a bright tomorrow
Leaving behind the dismal, sorrowing days
For an abundant life overflowing with praise.
Today I thank God who has given me
Such wonderful friends and family
I pray they may be blessed abundantly
For all their loving kindness to me
Restoring my faith in God through humanity
Removing scales from my eyes to let me see.
