Lyrics

May I have a grateful heart, for each small favor granted,
As the years unfold see life through eyes enchanted.
May I find beauty in all things, not be too blind to see,
All I’ve been looking for is here surrounding me.
And if I should forget, may I learn my part,
To live/ to laugh/ to love with a grateful heart.

Scarlet roses on the fence, sunlight through the trees,
The scent of pine upon the wind, a deep blue rolling sea.
I’ll find joy in simple things I need no wealth to buy,
The wonder of a new sunrise, a starry midnight sky.
And if I’m feeling down, may I learn my part,
To live / to laugh / to love with a grateful heart.

May my ears remain tuned in to hear the smallest sigh,
And I’ll lend a gentle touch to those less sure than I.
So I’lI have a grateful heart, I’ll be satisfied
When days are hard and all my plans lie at their lowest tide.
There are many paths I follow on my way,
Through canyons deep, darkest nights, to a sunlit day.
And if I lose my way, may I find my part,
I’m gonna’ live, I’m gonna’ laugh, I’m gonna’ love, with a grateful
