According to her beautiful song, “Blessed”.
The Minister
who practiced what he preached
The Poor Man
who said that heaven was within reach
The Girl Selling Roses
who showed us how to live
The Neglected Child
who knew how to forgive
The Battered Woman
who didn’t seek revenge
The Warrior
who didn’t need to win
The Blind Man
who could see for miles and miles
The Fighter
who didn’t fight for the prize
The Mother
who gave up the child
The Soldier
who gave up his life
The Teacher
who didn’t have a degree
The Prisoner
who knew how to be free
The Mystic
who turned water into wine
The Watchmaker
who gave up his time
The Wounded Man
who felt no pain
The Wayfaring Stranger
who knew our names
The Homeless Man
who showed us the way home
The Hungry Man
who filled us with love
The Little Innocent Baby
who taught us the truth
The Forlorn, Forsaken and Abused.
we were blessed, we were blessed, we were blessed
