I hold my head up high
looking deep within the sky
thanking my God for my Life
and for my mind
thanking him for the wisdom
he has handed down to me
that has been written in ancient history

I thank you, My God, for the rain
I thank you for the pain that came my way
I thank you for everything
I listen to his words that are written on the wall
even if it is covered in blood

I remember all my pains of yesterday
I have learned from them in so many ways
I thank you, My God, for the wisdom of  Life
even when the wisdom wasn't very nice
the pains of yesterdays rain
is the wisdom of all.
