I've got a roof over my head I've got a warm place to sleep Some nights I lie awake counting gifts Instead of counting sheep I've got a heart that can hold love I've got a mind that can think There may be times when I lose the light And let my spirits sink But I can't stay depressed When I remember how I'm blessed Grateful, grateful Truly grateful I am Grateful, grateful Truly blessed And duly grateful In a city of strangers I got a family of friends No matter what rocks and brambles fill the way I know that they will stay until the end I feel a hand holding my hand It's not a hand you can see But on the road to the promised land This hand will shepherd me Through delight and despair Holding tight and always there Grateful, grateful Truly grateful I am Grateful, grateful Truly blessed And duly grateful It's not that I don't want a lot Or hope for more, or dream of more But giving thanks for what I've got Makes me happier than keeping score In a world that can bring pain I will still take each chance For I believe that whatever the terrain Our feet can learn to dance Whatever stone life may sling We can moan or we can sing Grateful, grateful Truly grateful I am Grateful, grateful Truly blessed And duly grateful Truly blessed And duly grateful.
