Grateful

That my heart takes another beat
That I am able to walk on these two feet
That the sun comes out to shine
That I am yours and you are mine
That I can rise up from defeat
That when I open my fridge there’s food to eat

That I have life while someone dies
That I can see with these 2 eyes
That I can hear the words you speak
That I am strong and not made weak
That I have a spirit that is ready to fight
To rage against that cold dark night

That I have a roof over my head
That I can sleep within a bed
That water comes out of my kitchen sink
That I have a mind to use to think

That I have the opportunity to be well read
That I can follow in your stead
That I have people to share life with
That you just give and give and give
That you see the potential in me
That I was born to be free
That you gave me this life to live
That you love me… it’s transformative!
