Most Richly Blessed

[Verse 1] I asked God for strength, that I might achieve. I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey. I asked for health, that I might do greater things. I was given infirmity, that I might do better things. [Chorus] I got nothing that I asked for – But everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am, among all men, most richly blessed. [Verse 2] I asked for riches, that I might be happy. I was given poverty, that I might be wise. I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men. I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God. [Chorus] I got nothing that I asked for – But everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am, among all men, most richly blessed. [Bridge] I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life. I was given life, that I might enjoy all things. [Outro] I got nothing that I asked for, But everything I had hoped for. I am, among all men... Most richly blessed. [Fade]
