Feeling Lucky
3-17-05
Well I woke up to a brand new day, The sun was shining down,
The wind was blowing from the west, and the leaves fell to the ground,
And I thought I was Lucky to wake up to see the sky, a perfect painted picture excited my sleepy eyes, and I was lucky to wake up another day, another opportunity to see my kids at play,
That morning I got a call from a brother who dissapeared,
I hadnt heard from him for years and the worst is what I feared,
And I thought I was Lucky to wake up to see the sky, a perfect painted picture excited my sleepy eyes, and I was lucky to wake up another day, another opportunity to see my kids at play,
Well later on that day I was in an auto wreck, Twisted metal all around, but just a scratch was
on my neck,
And I thought I was Lucky to wake up to see the sky, a perfect painted picture excited my sleepy eyes, and I was lucky to wake up another day, another opportunity to see my kids at play,
I saw my baby girl fall hard, against the street she lay,
I knew that she'd been hurt but she got up and started to play,
And I thought I was Lucky to wake up to see the sky, a perfect painted picture excited my sleepy eyes, and I was lucky to wake up another day, another opportunity to see my kids at play,
My daughter over heard the words that I had said, she turned and looked at me, She put her hands to my cheeks and this is what she said,
Daddy, Daddy, it wasnt luck you see, Cant you feel God's gentle touch protecting you and me,
He's been here standing and watching all this time,
It wasnt luck, it wasnt magic, it was our savior yours and mine.
