Grateful State

Peace found in the simplicity of gratefulness.

Everything is going fine. Worries just a waste of time.

Oh I’m in a grateful state of mind.

Life is truly beautiful.

No need to focus on the woes.

Count your blessing and let the rest go.

Learn your lessons one at a time.

And don’t you be afraid to cry.

Rely on a grateful state of mind.

Nothing may be going right.

Thoughts keeping you awake at night.

That doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

Even if you take a fall, stand up again, give it your all.

You’ll get by with a grateful state of mind.

Many things you can’t control.

Learn the art of letting go.

Don’t return to where you were before.

Keep your eyes on the prize.

Step lightly through the sands of time.

And abide in a grateful state of mind.

Paths we choose, all different ways.

No promise of another day.

So play the cards dealt to you.

There’s no such thing as win or lose.

Just a story written all by you.

Let your pen roll with the flow.

Keep this truth down in our soul.

Live life in a grateful state of mind.

And when you find your inks gone dry,

lay your worn-out pen aside, allow yourself to read through the lines.

Give some time to a grateful state of mind.

With a smile on your face someday you’ll leave this broken place.

Take flight in a grateful state of mind.

Oh I’m in a grateful state of mind.
