Be, be grateful
Be, be grateful
God has not promised me sunshine
That's not the way it's going to be
But a little rain mixed with God's sunshine
A little pain makes me appreciate the good times
Be, be grateful
Be, be grateful
God desires to feel your longings
Every pain that you feel
He feels them just like you
But He can't afford to let you feel
Only good, only good
So that you can appreciate the good times
Be, be grateful
Be, be grateful
In the morning when i rise
New mercy when I see when I open my eyes
I just wanna thank you for what you've done
You've been so good
That's why I wanna be gotta be grateful
Be grateful, (grateful)
Somebody else worse of than you
Somebody else longing to be in your shoes
You oughta be grateful
Grateful
I just wanna give thanks
Looking back over my life
(Grateful)
(Gotta give thanks)
