In times of joy, or times of strife,
I've learned the value of my life,
The blessings given every day,
For which I'm grateful in every way.
I'm thankful for my family and friends,
Who lift me up and make amends,
Their love and support is ever true,
A precious gift that I'll always pursue.
I'm grateful for the simple things,
The sun that shines, the bird that sings,
The laughter of a child at play,
And the beauty of a brand-new day.
I'm thankful for the lessons learned,
The bridges built, the bridges burned,
For every challenge that I've faced,
Has taught me strength and given me grace.
And most of all, I'm grateful for grace,
For the unending love that takes my place,
For the gift of life that I've been given,
And the hope of a brighter day in heaven.
