I Am Grateful
Song # 459 11/15/2012 | CD: Home Across The Sea
I am grateful for the people who challenge me to grow
And for all the friends who I may not yet know
I am grateful for the lessons that I thought were mistakes
That looking back were really very lucky breaks
Refrain:
I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful for You
I am grateful. I am grateful. I am grateful for You
I am grateful for the food upon my table
and the water that enables me to stay strong and able
I am grateful for the people who wrote the books I read
That helped me through my days and nourished me like bread
Refrain:
I am grateful for these times, which may not be the best
But they surely aren’t the worst and I look forward to the rest
I am grateful for the air which we all must share
And gravity as well, even all the times I fell
Refrain:
I am grateful for the love I feel within this place
And the hope that I still have for the human race
I’m grateful for the days that I may still have to grace
My beloved Mother Earth with the sun upon my face
Refrain:
