Thankful

[Verse 1:]
It's a wonderful thing to go to sleep
and wake up in the morning, and you're breathin'.
It's a wonderful thing to see the sun light
shine across the window after dreamin'.

(It's so easy to take it for granted),
(but we're only alive because He allows it).
(It's so easy to think we're independent),
(but just think, if He wasn't there where would we be)?

[Chorus:]
We must take some time to give thanks to Him,
for the sunny days He gives us
and lights up our lives.

We must be sure that we to give thanks to Him,
for those chilly nights He holds us
and caresses our lives.

[Verse 2:]
It's a wonderful thing to see
your loved ones cured of their diseases.
It's a wonderful thing to hear the voice of freedom
when you need it, I've heard it.

(It's so easy to loose understanding),
(then it's not them),
(it's us who's more so demanding).
(It's so easy to get complacent),
(but just imagine if we lost Him where would we be)?

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
He greets us in the morning from a peaceful sleep,
and watched over us all through the night.
From the cars we drive, and the planes that fly,
He shows us His love by preserving our lives.

(Be thankful for all that He's done for you),
(take a minute and send it up).

(Be thankful for all that He's done for you),
(take a minute and send it up).

[Chorus]
