Lyrics
Someone's standing in a welfare line
Or off the freeway with a hungry sign
Someones stressing bout to lose their mind
I gotta be thankful, thankful
Someone just became a single mother
Someone just lost a sister or brother
Its so important that we love each other
And be
Chorus:
Thankful, thankful
Ive gotta take the time to say, that Im
Thankful, thankful
With every single breath that I take
I've gotta be thankful, thankful
Someones sitting in a prison cell
Wasting away in their own personal hell
Everybodys got their own story to tell
Ive gotta be thankful, thankful
Man, I used to think I didnt have a lot
Now I know just how much Ive got
Every day Im gonna take the time and stop to be
REPEAT CHORUS
Any one of these so easily could have been me
But if it had not been for grace and mercy
Who knows where I'd be
I've been riding on this roller coaster ride
Round and round I've seen the other side
Now I'm here to tell you that the secret of life is being
REPEAT CHORUS
