I Feel The Fortune Of My Years

I feel the fortune of my years,
I hope. For all my children's love

This day must bring me happy tears
And thoughts that joyful music prove.

Dear God,
I'm thankful for my life,
for all the happy parts,
and even for the sad ones.
Each one shows me just how much You love me.

I watch my son's face
when he laughs, when he cries, when he sleeps.
Then I see You,
so again I'm thankful.

I look at my husband
and to his smile, and to his worries.
Then I see You,
and again I'm thankful

I listen to my mother
whisper to my father
laugh to my brothers
talk to my friends.
Then I see You,
again I'm thankful

I'm thankful for You've given me a full life
and most of all for teaching me how to lead it.
And if I may have one wish, today
I'd wish that You bless me,
dengan kehidupan yang membawa rahmat bagi matiku.
Amien.
