I stand here lookin’ up at the starts tonight,
How can one man have so much in life
As I look around me, what a picture it paints,
I’m much more than lucky, I oughta give my thanks
There’s food on the table, a log on the fire,
And in my woman’s eyes there’s love and desire

The blessings, sent from above,
Oh, the blessings, a life full of love
When I look around I can see,
All that’s been given me,
So lift my eyes up to the sky
I wanna give my, my, my, my, my
Thanks for the blessings

Sometimes I fall asleep at the end of the day
And I forget to thank you, I’m ashamed to say
But as I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
I know you can hear me here on Earth,
Thank you for giving me more than I deserve

The blessings, sent from above,
Oh, the blessings, a life full of love
When I look around I can see,
All that’s been given me,
So lift my eyes up to the sky
‘Cause I wanna give my, my, my, my, my
Thanks for the blessings

Blessings, when I look around,
I can see, all that’s been given me
So, I lift my eyes up to the sky,
‘Cause I wanna give my, my, my, my, my
Thanks for the blessings

Oh, The blessings, sent from above,
Oh, the blessings, a life full of love
When I look around I can see,
All that’s been given me,
So lift my eyes up to the sky
‘Cause I wanna give my, my, my, my, my
Thanks for the blessings

The blessings, Oh, the blessings…
