Blessings Songtext
von Diane Warren

I walked through a hundred fires
How did I get through alive?
I thought, thought I′d never make it
Make it to the other side
I had to suffer through the pain
I had to search to find the strength
To make it through another day, but I did

All the things that's brought me to my knees
Stripped me of everything

But they were lessons
And they were blessings
I didn′t know it then, I know it now
All I had to go through
All it put my soul through
It really shook me up and took me down
But they were blessings, blessings
And they were blessings, blessings


I've been, I've been through some battles
And I found out how strong I was
I crashed and I hit the bottom
But I found out what I′m made of
There were some tears that had to fall
But there would be no curtain call
Learned I could rise up off it all, so I did

All the things that′s brought me to my knees
They taught me everything

'Cause they were lessons
And they were blessings
I didn′t know it then, I know it now
All I had to go through
All it put my soul through
It really shook me up and took me down
But they were blessings, blessings
And they were blessings, blessings

I had to fall to crawl out of the wreckage
It tried to kill me, but I wouldn't let it
All the things brought me to my knees
They were lessons, they were blessings
I didn′t know it then, I know it now


But they were lessons
And they were blessings
I didn't know it then, I know it now
All I had to go through
All it put my soul through
It really shook me up and took me down

But they were lessons

Oh, they were lessons
I didn′t know it then, I know it now
All I had to go through
All it put my soul through
It really shook me up and took me down

But they were lessons

They were lessons
And they were lessons
They were blessings
And they were lessons
They were lessons
Oh, they were blessings
Yeah, yeah, oh
