Grateful

since I can recall
music was a light in the dark
the rustle of the trees
lit a spark
inside my heart

breathing life through the Earth
I was so captivated
my soul was bare

feeling, knowing
that there is something around me
that is bigger, wider
than I could ever imagine
I'm so grateful
for the beauty and joy
life has given me
I hope
I have given too

I have tasted bitter tears
tripped and fell upon this road
but facing my fears
made me stronger
life has shown

learning from my mistakes
I have discovered that life
gives more
than it takes

feeling, knowing
that there is something around me
that is bigger and wider
than I could ever imagine
I'm so grateful
for the beauty and joy
life has given me
I hope
I have given too

Angels sing and I smile inside

feeling, knowing
that there is something around me
that is bigger and wider
than I could ever imagine
I'm so grateful
for the beauty and joy
life has given me
I hope
I have given too
