(Ervin Drake - Jimmy Shirl)

When I look up at the heavens when day is through
Once again there's a good day I'll hold to you
With the world to watch over still you watch me too
I'm grateful, grateful.

When I sit at my table I say a prayer
'Bout the good things upon it that you put there
And my loved ones around it not empty chair
I'm grateful, Lord to Thee.

You have brought me good times
You have brought me bad times
But through the good and bad times
You always send me a song to sing.

When I lie on my pillow I say a prayer
For the blessings you send me and load and care
And the world full of sunshine and my help is there
I'm grateful, grateful, Lord to Thee...
