I've seen a lot of places I've been around the world I've been seen pretty faces Been with some beautiful girls After all I've witnessed One thing still amazes me Just like a miracle, you have to see to believe [Chorus] ('Cause) God blessed Texas With His own hand Brought down angels from the promised land Gave 'em a place where they could dnace If you want to see heaven, brother, here's you chance I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas. First, He let the sun shine Then He made the waters deep Then He gave us moonlight For all the world to see Well everybody knows that the Lord works in mysterious ways He took a rest, then on the very next day [Chorus: x2] Well I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas Well I've been sent to spread the message God blessed Texas.
