Blessed to Be a Blessing

I was looking up Bible verses online today and came across this sweet song that fits the theme of our blog perfectly. It was written as the yearly theme-song for a Christian children's school and I think I will use it as our school's theme song for this year.

You can visit True Vine Music's site for a free download of both the lyrics and the music, or to just listen to the song online. The tune is simple and charming. I think you are going to like this one.


Blessed to Be a Blessing
by Michael A. Schmid

Chorus

Blessed to be a blessing
Blessed to live your love
Blessed to share with others every blessing from above
Blessed to walk in mercy
Blessed to light the way
Oh, Blessed to be a blessing every day

Verse 1

Oh my Jesus, you have blessed me
You died for me to take my sin away
Now you live your life in me
And the love received is love I give away

Chorus

Blessed to be a blessing
Blessed to live your love
Blessed to share with others every blessing from above
Blessed to walk in mercy
Blessed to light the way
Oh, Blessed to be a blessing every day

Verse 2

Oh my Jesus, make me a blessing
In my work and play, in everything I do
Oh let your blessing flow through me
That in seeing me, may others see you

Chorus


Blessed to be a blessing
Blessed to live your love
Blessed to share with others every blessing from above
Blessed to walk in mercy
Blessed to light the way
Oh, Blessed to be a blessing every day


Music and lyrics by Michael A. Schmid and the worship team of St. John's Lutheran Church in Napa, California.
