2013 台灣燈會在新竹 (攝影：Anita Yu) 這是我家哈尼寫的第一首英文歌！！ 哈尼是虔誠的基督徒 這首歌的歌詞有濃厚的宗教色彩 雖然哈尼的英文說的嚇嚇叫 為了慎重起見 還特地請住在美國的好友 Cornelia Hilton 女士 為這首歌的歌詞做了最好的修飾 歌詞內容就跟常聽到的聖歌一樣 讚美上帝的愛 讚美上帝的恩典 任何宗教的歌曲 都是教化人心 勸人向善 要懂得知足　惜福 珍惜當下擁有的一切 遇到困難不退縮 不輕言放棄 勇敢迎向陽光 歌詞就是這麼淺顯易懂 曲調也讓人聽了輕鬆自在 無論您是不是基督徒 希望這首歌能為您帶來幸運 Anita用這首歌 為好友們祝福..... 延伸閱讀：我家哈尼的 自創歌曲 系列

《 THE BLESSING 》

作詞/作曲/編曲/演唱: Thomas Lee

歌詞校正: Cornelia Hilton


A.)
When I was young, I used to ask why was i born to a poor family
Some times I hated that I couldn't go out in a nice car
I ran away to prove I was right, no matter how hard the way i go
Even though I paid much more from the others


CHORUS:
Hallelujah, God never gave up on me.
He kept me in safe when I was in trouble
Hallelujah, God never gave up on me
Though I kept going on wasting His love and grace
Hallelujah, God never gave up on me
He kept me in safe when I was in trouble
Hallelujah, God never gave up on me
Though I keeping on wasting his mercy and blessings


B.)
I cried alone in the dark for the crazy ways I lived before
Tried to pretend everything is alright, though I was hurting
I was lost in life and lost the truth, no matter what the fact is at all
All I had was hope in false achievements


C.)
I finally learn that God is always watching over me
Like a father stretching out his arms towards you when you learn to walk
Like a mother holds you in her arms to ease your pain
I think it's time to go home, not to run away, into His waiting arms.
