*Thankful
Thankful for this life I live
And for my God above
Thankful for this time I have
To share with those I love
Thankful that I have my health
And the wealth that I may need
Thankful that I have a job
And loved ones next to me
Thankful for the friends I've made
Who stand faithful by my side
Thankful for the lessons learned
That now guide me through my life
Thankful that I have a house
A place that I call home
Thankful for my family
And the love felt from my son
Thankful for this land I love
And for those who fight for me
Thankful for all who gave their life
For this land that we call free
Thankful for this life I live
And for my God above
Thankful for this time I have
To share with those I love
Thankful
