My Wish For You

On this first day of a brand new year (2018) I thought I would share something short and sweet to get us started off in the right direction. Back in April 2006, the American country music group Rascal Flatts released a new album titled “Me and My Gang,” and the third single on that album was “My Wish.” By December 2006 it had hit #1 on the U.S. Country music charts . . . And as of May 2016, the song had sold 2.927 million in the U.S., and in August 2016, a re-recorded version of the song was released to celebrate the song’s 10 year anniversary (source here). Background information on the song can be found at this link.

Here are the words to “My Wish” (YouTube video is below):

“My Wish”

I hope the days come easy
and the moments pass slow,
And each road leads you
where you want to go.
And if you’re faced with a choice
and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one
that means the most to you.
And if one door opens
to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin’
’til you find the window.
If it’s cold outside,
show the world the
warmth of your smile.
But more than anything,
more than anything…

[Chorus:]
My wish for you
Is that this life becomes
all that you want it to.
Your dreams stay big,
your worries stay small.
You never need to carry
more than you can hold.
And while you’re out there
gettin’ where you’re gettin’ to,
I hope you know
somebody loves you,
And wants the
same things too.
Yeah, this is my wish.

I hope you never look back
but you never forget,
All the ones who love you
And the place you left.
I hope you always forgive
and you never regret,
And you help somebody
every chance you get.
And you find God’s grace
in every mistake,
And always give more
than you take.
But more than anything,
yeah more than anything…

[Chorus x2]

This is my wish
I hope you know
somebody loves you.
May all your dreams
stay big…

So as we travel through this new year of 2018, may your dreams stay big . . .

Your worries stay small . . .

And you never need to carry . . .

More then you can hold . . . .
