Give Thanks

When you wake up in the morning do you ever say thank you to God?
It’s easy to be worried, but it feels way better when you are not
Think about the way that the Sun comes into your heart
It brightens up the window and it brightens up some of your thoughts

We don’t have to be sure of everything to give thanks
Just to notice a kindness as we go on our way
We all know the pain of living every day
But watch the world change colors when we give thanks

Who’s that causing all the drama in your life?
It may be your best friend, your mom, or even your wife
But think for a minute how it would be if they were gone
And drop what you’re doing and call them up on the phone

We don’t have to be sure of everything to give thanks
Just to notice a kindness as we go on our way
We all know the pain of living every day
But watch the world change colors when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks

Think of all the ways that you could’ve died in your sleep
A meteor, tsunami or that sugar that I slipped in your tea
But look at who woke up and made it to a brand new day
Yeah, so give up your worrying and join me when I say

We don’t have to be sure of everything to give thanks
Just to notice a kindness as we go on our way
We all know the pain of living every day
But watch the world change colors when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks
Oh, when we give thanks
