Be thankful, then, all your life; don't think twice
Good things can come even on the worst of days
When I was down and feeling absurd in the shadow of the night
A simple man started singing to me a hymn of hope and life
Because you live
Be thankful, then, all your life; don't think twice
Good friends will stand by your side in the worst of hours
A black-eyed man told me all of his tears could fill a riverbed
But you bring hope to the hurting and sad and sorrow will not last
Sorrow will not last
Because you live
Good things can come even on the worst of days
When I was down and feeling absurd in the shadow of the night
A simple man started singing to me a hymn of hope and life
Because you live
Be thankful, then, all your life; don't think twice
Good friends will stand by your side in the worst of hours
A black-eyed man told me all of his tears could fill a riverbed
But you bring hope to the hurting and sad and sorrow will not last
Sorrow will not last
Because you live
