I am thankful for the breath He gives me each morning
and the sun that accompanies me with its ray
I am thankful for life as I know it, and all that He brings
each time I kneel by my bedside to pray

I am grateful for the lungs that hold my breath each day
and for every noteworthy tune I hear as I sing
I am grateful for winter snowflakes and flowers of May
and for my guardian angel's right wing

I am thankful for family and friends, and strangers too
for the love that I receive and the love I give
I am thankful for God's blessings that never go askew
my ability to love, and forgive.
