I'm mindful of the blessings

That come my way each day

My heart is overflowing

each time I kneel and pray

I'm thankful for the seasons

Each one's masterpiece

I'm allow to work the land

but God still holds the lease

I'm grateful for the friendships

That brighten sorrow's way

Because my cup of happiness

sustains me every day

I love the children and the flowers

That decorate my life

And the quiet, gentle hours

I spend with my wife

I'm grateful for eyes that see

The beauty of it all

Because God's been good to me

and blessed me through it all

I'm thankful for the little things

That fill my life with love

The best things in life are free

They come from God above.
