Bless the things I've come to know br And those I'd like to sing. br And bless the star-crossed lovers br In the cooler days of spring. br br Bless the winds of summer br And the stars that shine above. br And bless the winter evenings br And the girls that I have loved. br br Bless the farmer's daughter br With her golden hair so fine. br And bless the one I'll marry br Till the day that she is mine. br br Bless the sun in winter br And the precious morning dew. br And bless the little children br When they're past the age of two. br br Bless the times I walked away br From things I didn't see. br And thank you Lord, for holding back br And never telling me. br br Bless my long successes br And my constant failures too. br And bless the hope I'll always have br As long as I have you. br br Bless the older people br In the twilight of their age. br And don't forget to bless the trees br For giving me this page. br br Bless the silent snowfall br And my wishes that came true. br And, oh yes Lord, but most of all; br My Blessing goes to you.
