Thankful

[Sherry]

Maybe it's just me, but I'm having a hard time getting in the Christmas mood. Then I come on here and all I am reading is how bad this or that is (Tim ). Well, I'm kind of tired of all the bad. Last night before I went to bed I heard this song on my iPod and it was what I needed. So I want to share with you all....listen and enjoy.

Thankful by Josh Groban

And here are the lyrics, just in case you don't listen to the song, at least read the lyrics!

Thankful

Somedays we forget
To look around us
Somedays we can't see
The joy that surrounds us
So caught up inside ourselves
We take when we should give.

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be.
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see.
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Look beyond ourselves
There's so much sorrow
It's way too late to say
I'll cry tomorrow
Each of us must find our truth
It's so long overdue

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And every day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though we all can still do more
There's so much to be thankful for.

Even with our differences
There is a place we're all connected
Each of us can find each other's light

So for tonight we pray for
What we know can be
And on this day we hope for
What we still can't see
It's up to us to be the change
And even though this world needs so much more

There's so much to be thankful for
