Wonderful Life
Ron from Houston, Texas Spent 3 years fighting ALS
If you knew all that he’s been through
You’d hardly say he’s blessed
But smiling through a phone call
He said let me tell you, friend
This life ain’t always wonderful
But what a wonderful life it’s been
It’ll send you flying high
It’ll bring you to your knees
It’s the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
It’s the laugh until it hurts
It’s the hurt until you cry
Can’t have one without the other
That’s how you know that you’re alive
In this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life
It’s a mountain and a valley
It’s a cradle and a grave
It’s a blessing and a battle
And it’s on any given day
It’s messy and imperfect
It’s a thief and it’s a gift
Yeah, this life ain’t always wonderful
But what a wonderful life it is
It’ll send you flying high
It’ll bring you to your knees
It’s the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
It’s the laugh until it hurts
It’s the hurt until you cry
Can’t have one without the other
That’s how you know that you’re alive
In this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life
This wonderful life
This wonderful life
Ron went home to Jesus
Got the call the other day
I sat and cried and thought about
The words I heard him say
I know there is a Heaven
Waiting for us after this
This life ain’t always wonderful
But this life ain’t all there is
No, this life ain’t always wonderful
But this life ain’t all there is
So let it send me flying high
Let it bring me to my knees
Bring the heartbreak and the happiness
And everything between
Let me laugh until it hurts
Let me hurt until I cry
And when it comes my time to go
I’ll smile and wave goodbye
To this broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life
It’s a broken and beautiful
Gone mad and magical
Awfully wonderful life

What a blessing, You can write meaningful songs.
Beautiful beyond words💜
Thank u for sharing this. I'm really struggling w slot of things but I know God has me. I love ur songs!!!
My husband is currently battling ALS. Started having symptoms in December 2020 with pain and stiffness in his hands, went to the doctor and they ran test after test, by July 2021 he was considered disabled. October 2021 we got the diagnosis at the young age of 40, and today he is in a wheelchair on two types of breathing machines, one for the day and one at night. This disease progresses so fast and so aggressively. I have never been so scared or exhausted from something in my life, and that's saying something if you knew what our family has been through. My nights are spent waking up to the sound of his breathing machine because it gets so loud, then waking up to the sound of silence because i dont hear it anymore and think he's stopped breathing. I live in fear of the day I may lose him, because he has been my rock in this life and the last 18 years of our marriage. But I have found myself leaning on God more than I ever have. I pray for God's mercy in all of this, and if it's his will, the complete healing of my husband. I hate everything about this disease. It's the worst.
I love this song. Thank you Matthew West

Jesus Says "Watch Me" by Ervin ©️ https://youtu.be/6UmkSXsS2tE
This means so much to me for you to do this song and even more for you to feature him before and after his wheelchair! Even more for you to touch on my community as I have muscular dystrophy myself. My daughter is being tested for muscle weakness. Thank you so so much for this beautiful song man 💚 God is doing some amazing things through you!
WOW! Very emotional and beautiful. I hope when my time comes I will be as gracious as this man is!
I can't stop listening to this song…..thank you Jesus that this life is not all that there is !!!
Wow! What a beautiful song…with absolutely beautiful sentiment! It brought me to tears. Through your music, you shine a light on the good and true things in life…even in our darkest moments. Thank you, Matthew!
I like songs with stories and this is one of them
Loved! This life is not always wonderful but what a wonderful life it is!! So true!
God is good and will always be through troubles and trials he will never leave us God I love our my God
Matthew probably doesn't remember me, but he used to call me and talk to me when I was on the brink of giving up on me and everything in my life. I couldn't trust anyone, especially my so called husband, Matthew told me that I had to trust someone and it should be God. I'm a shy person and I always hung up on him, I wish I could talk to him now and tell him that I listened and I trusted in God and my life is still hard, but I am still here praising God and reading His word. And how my life has changed. Ty God and ty Matthew West
My brother passed away from ALS in May of 2021 after a short 18month battle with this horrible decease. I was one of his caregivers and what they go through is heartbreaking. We had a fund raiser for ALS and sold t-shirts that said I wear blue for my husband, dad, papa, brother nephew uncle friend, and some just said for Randy. How he looked forward to checking face book to see pictures of family, friends and strangers wearing the shirts. The family requested everyone wear them at the viewing. It was something to see all those blue t-shirts. We miss you Randy 💙💙💙
I have a wonderful family I am loved
What an incredible inspirational song of a real person’s life and Faith in Jesus Christ Amen Amen Hallelujah ✝️💟🙏
Thanks west for blessings us not only with your wisdom and songs that gives hope every day I do listen to this song and the others everyday, am from Kenya
😢😢 it is a wonderful life indeed… I am so grateful for the power in the name of Jesus and for the friendship of the Holy Spirit and the love of God the Father. Though it's always a tough time when we face life challenges but the joy that comes with the victories we have in Jesus name is much more and it makes all those challenges worth it.
I am so grateful to God for the grace to know Him and for Him to love me and choose me.
What a perfect song about life
There is a wonderful life when you go to heaven
