My World

When I'm depressed and feeling blue,
don't know which way to turn...
my little girl walks up to me
with eyes full of concern.

She says "Mommy what's the matter?
I love you very much."
She puts her hand up to my face.
I feel her tender touch.

I put my arms around her.
In my throat builds up a lump
and I forget just what it was
that put me in the dumps.

Why do I take for granted
the ones I dearly love?
My husband and my children,
The ones I'm so proud of?

I'm so depressed with selfish things.
Why can't I realize? ...
If I would open them and look,
my world's before my eyes.

God, thank you for the loved ones
that my world revolves around...
And thank you Lord, for keeping
my world secure and sound.
