Lyrics
Grateful
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've got a roof over my head,
I've got a warm place to sleep.
Some nights i lie awake counting gifts
Instead of counting sheep.
I've got a heart that can hold love,
I've got a mind that can think.
There may be times when i lose the light
And let my spirits sink,
But i can't stay depressed
When i remember how i'm blessed
Grateful, grateful,
Truly grateful i am.
Grateful, grateful,
Truly blessed
And duly grateful.
In a city of strangers,
I've got a family of friends.
No matter what rocks and brambles fill the way,
I know that they will stay until the end.
I feel a hand holding my hand --
It's not a hand you can see
But, on the road to the promised land,
This hand will shepherd me
Through delight and despair,
Holding tight and always there.
Grateful, grateful,
Truly grateful i am.
Grateful, grateful,
Truly blessed
And duly grateful.
It's not that i don't want a lot
Or hope for more, or dream of more,
But giving thanks for what i've got
Makes me so much happier than keeping score.
In a world that can bring pain,
I will still take each chance --
For i believe that, whatever the terrain,
Our feet can learn to dance.
Whatever stone life may sling,
We can moan or we can sing.
Grateful, grateful,
Truly grateful i am.
Grateful, grateful.
Truly blessed
And duly grateful.
