More than Enough by Kip Moore

More Than Enough—This Friday’s Song

Sharing another song by Kip Moore for this Friday’s song. This week I picked “More Than Enough." With all that is going on in the world, it is always good to relax and focus on the simple things in life that can bring so much joy. To borrow a bit from the song, "I say the grass is pretty green right here and this glass is past full".
