When I wake up in the morning
I put a big smile on my face
Got a lot to be thankful for
And I'm not gonna take it for granted
Got a roof over my head
Got a bed to sleep in
Got my friends and family
And I feel their love around me
I'm gonna bow my head and pray
I'm gonna close my eyes and say
I'm feeling blessed
Feeling blessed and lucky
Got my whole life ahead of me
And, by God, I'm gonna live it happy
Take a moment to close my eyes
And feel the world around me
Feel the sand beneath my toes
Got the beautiful sky above me
Hear the music in the air
Nature's singing to me
Radiant colors beyond compare
Beautiful flowers blooming
I'm gonna bow my head and pray
I'm gonna close my eyes and say
I'm feeling blessed
Feeling blessed and lucky
Got my whole life ahead of me
And, by God, I'm gonna live it happy
I'm gonna bow my head and pray
I'm gonna close my eyes and say
I'm feeling blessed
Feeling blessed and lucky
Got my whole life ahead of me
And, by God, I'm gonna live it happy
