How Blessed Are You? Poem by Denis Martindale

The prodigal son thought he could win... till his friends walked away...
Yet faith holds out when doubts give in... though miracles delay...
His faith made him repent in time... then he walked home once more...
And he was loved with love sublime... his father made that sure...

The Lamb of God was sacrificed... so we'd be born again...
Though we're adopted, saved by Christ... our Father's gifts remain...
So we regard this world of ours... as truly precious now
And subject to God's special powers... much more than we know how...

How blessed are you this very day? Now revelation's here!
More blessed are you each time you pray, if you hold Christ most dear!
Because He lives in those who care... abiding in His love!
Because He guides us more by prayer, with grace that proves enough!

How blessed are you this very day? God grants eternal life
To those who overcome and pray... beyond each pain and strife...
Beyond the tragic times you've known... beyond each tragedy...
Today has come... the past has flown... with blessings still to be...
