If I'd known what I know today Ten years ago I wonder where I'd be on my journey now But I'm here this evening And I know what I'm here to do I'm here to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you Well I woke up early this morning I was feeling mighty bad And I searched my heart and I found a reason why Instead of thinking ‘bout where I am I was thinking ‘bout where I've been And forgot to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you Well I'm here to tell you When my heart's so heavy ‘bout to break in two One thing every time brings back my smile
Well I start to count my blessings That's all that I need to do And I've got to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you Some days I get weary When I'm tired of keeping on keeping on I look around and I see my work is not done Well I'm here this evening people You know what I'm here to do I'm here to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you I said I'm here to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you I'm here to give thanks for the joy of living my life with you
