Wonderful Life

(álbum: My Story Your Glory - 2023)

Ron from Houston, Texas
Spent three years fighting ALS
If you knew all that he's been through
You'd hardly say he's blessed
But smiling through a phone call
He said "Let me tell you, friend
This life ain't always wonderful
But what a wonderful life it's been"

It'll send you flying high
It'll bring you to your knees
It's the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
It's the laugh until it hurts
It's the hurt until you cry
Can't have one without the other
It's how you know that you're alive
In this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life

It's a mountain and a valley
It's a cradle and a grave
It's a blessing and a battle
And it's on any given day
It's messy and imperfect
It's a thief and it's a gift
Yeah, this life ain't always wonderful
But what a wonderful life it is

It'll send you flying high
It'll bring you to your knees
It's the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
It's the laugh until it hurts
It's the hurt until you cry
Can't have one without the other
It's how you know that you're alive
In this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life

This wonderful life
It's a wonderful life

Ron went home to Jesus
Got the call the other day
I sat and cried and thought about
The words I heard him say
I know there is a Heaven
Waiting for us after this
This life ain't always wonderful
But this life ain't all there is
No, this life ain't always wonderful
But this life ain't all there is

So let it send you flying high
Let it bring me to my knees
Bring the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
Let me laugh until it hurts
Let me hurt until I cry
And when it comes my time to go
I'll smile and wave goodbye
To this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life

It's a broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life
