To all the beginnings and places I've been And all of the strangers I now call my friends Slow moving mornings and magical nights And the birds that keep telling me I’ll be alright I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh To the skies filled with glory and days of defeat For the treasure I've found in both doubt and belief All of the colors the greys and the greens To the heartaches that bring us all back to our knees I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh I'm grateful oh To my Mother and her courage to set her self free For my Father who’s patience taught me how to breathe All of the seasons, the winter and spring Thank God they all show us how brave we can be
