Gratitude

I heard a song today on the new release from India.Arie that immediately brought tears to my eyes as I thought of someone very dear to me. So today’s blog entry is just the lyrics to the song as a dedication to that person whom I am so grateful to have in my life. In fact, a photo of this person was the first thing that went on the new gratitude board that I’m creating.

If you like, you can also listen to the song here.

He Heals Me

I told him my biggest secret
And he told me four
He smiled at me and said
that makes me love more
And then he made me laugh
And I knew it was a sign
That he was a man
That I wanted in my life
And with every passing day
I feel more and more of that way

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me
He heals me
He heals me

I can play him songs
all through the night
And he will listen to every line
And even when I’m wrong he is still kind
He chooses his words wisely
when he tells me I’m not right
Yes he is a beautiful man
But he’s also a beautiful friend

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me, no
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me
He heals me
He heals me

The moment that we met
he made me smile
He has so much compassion in his eyes
I have no idea
how long he’ll be here
A season or a lifetime
forever or a year
But for the first time in my life I’m not worried about the future
Because we have such a wonderful time when we’re together
However things turn out it’s all right
Cause he’s already changed my life.

He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me, no
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
he never hurts me
He heals me
He knows the real me
And he accepts me
He never hurts me
He heals me
He heals me
He never hurts me
He heals me
