Thankful

This song is just a simple little message
It’s no heavy thing
It’s just a mere reminder for those of us who
Sometimes forget just how good we have it
Life is something we tend to take for granted
We’ve gotta it so good that we’re hard to satisfy
It would be so nice if we lead towards appreciation
It’s not hard if just we try
You should tell the child that only has bread and butter
That some folks have no bread at all
And the man that has no fortune
That hasn’t still found someone to love
He should stand just as tall
That’s why I’m thankful for every morning that I rise
I’m thankful whether God sends rain or blue sky
I’m thankful 'cause I can clearly see
His love for you and me
Hey, looking back through the years when I was very young
I used to dream of becoming a star
Even though I was anxious, I was patient because of You
In time I would go far
There were many obstacles that were in my way
I could have done bad things and been locked away
But with love and attention from my family
Success is here to stay
I’m thankful for every morning that I rise
I’m thankful whether God sends rain or blue sky
I’m thankful 'cause I can clearly see
His love for you and me
If we only stop to count our blessings
We’ll find that there will be no time to complain
For what we don’t have, that’s not the best thing
'Cause the most important things in life we can always gain
That’s why I’m thankful
Thankful, thankful
His love
That’s why I’m thankful for every morning that I rise
I’m thankful whether God sends rain or blue sky
I’m thankful 'cause I can clearly see
His love for you and me
Thankful, thankful
I’m thankful
Thankful 'cause I can really see
His love
