IRISH BLESSING

DID YOU EVER THINK OF
AN IRISH BLESSING
WHAT THAT WOULD REALLY BE
THE LORD KNEW I NEEDED ONE
SO HE SENT THIS ONE TO ME

THIS IRISH BLESSING IS THERE
FOR ME
WHEN EVER I NEED A SMILE
IT DOESN’T MATTER FAR OR NEAR
THE LORD DOESN’T LOOK AT MILES

SO IF YOU ARE SAD OR LONELY
AND NEED SOMETHING TO HELP
YOU THROUGH
ASK THE LORD TO GIVE YOU
AN IRISH BLESSING JUST LIKE YOU

BY AUNT JOSIE

THE DAY THAT JESUS SENT ME

THE DAY THAT JESUS SENT ME
TO YOU AND ALL YOUR FRIENDS
I NEW HE DID THE RIGHT THING
OR TO YOU HE WOULD NOT SEND
THE DAY THAT I BEGAN TO WRITE
AND YOU WERE THERE FOR ME
MY PRESENT THOUGHT WAS WHY
THEN I KNEW THIS WAS TO BE
ONLY CHRIST COULD BE THE ONE
THAT WOULD LEAD ME RIGHT TO YOU
HE KNEW THE FRIENDSHIP GIVEN
TO ALL STRANGERS AS YOU DO
I WANT TO THANK YOU VERY MUCH
FOR EVERYTHING YOU DO
AS A STRANGER I DID COME
NOW HAVE FRIENDSHIP WITH YOU
TOO.
