It's a wonderful thing to go to sleep and

Wake up in the morning, and you're breathin'

It's a wonderful thing to see the sunlight

Shine across the window after dreamin' (oh)

It's so easy to take it for granted

But we're only alive because he allows it (say it again)

It's so easy to think we're independent

But just think if he wasn't there where would we be?

We must take some time to give thanks to him

For the sunny days he gives us and lights up our lives (ohh)

We must be sure that we to give thanks to him, (be thankful)

For those chilly nights he holds us, and caresses our lives

It's a wonderful thing to see your loved-one cured of their diseases

It's a wonderful thing to hear the voice of freedom when you need it

I've heard it

It's so easy to lose understanding

Then it's not them it's us who more so demanding (it's so easy)

It's so easy to get complaced

But just imagine if we lost him where would we be?

We must take some time to give thanks to him, (oh)

For the sunny days he gives us and lights up our lives (for those sunny days, oh, oh)

We must be sure that we to give thanks to him (give thanks to him)

For those chilly nights he holds us, and caresses our lives (when I'm cold, yeah)

He greets us in the mornin', (in the mornin') from a peaceful sleep, (yeah)

And watched over us all through the night (ohh)

From the cars we drive (cars we drive) and the planes that fly, (the planes we fly)

He shows us his love, by reserving our lives

Be thankful for all that he's done for you, (o)

Take a minute and send it up

Be thankful for all that he's done for you, (I know, yeah yeah)

Take a minute and send it up (we gotta take some time)

We must take some time to give thanks to him (thank you lord, thank you, Jesus)

For the sunny days he gives us and lights up our lives (rejoice, rejoice in the day of his name)

We must be sure that we to give thanks to him (oh)

For those chilly nights he holds us, and caresses our lives (take out a little time to thank him)

We must take some time to give thanks to him (yeah)

For the sunny days he gives us and lights up our lives (must see my father, oh lord, oh lord)
