Mahalia Jackson
I’m Grateful
[Verse 1]
When I look up at the heavens when day is through
Once again, there's a good day I owe to you
With a world to watch over, still you watch me too
I'm grateful, grateful
[Verse 2]
When I sit at my table, I say a prayer
For the good things upon it that you put there
And my loved ones around me, not an empty chair
I'm grateful, Lord, to thee
[Bridge]
You have brought me good times
You have brought me bad times
Through the good and bad times
You always send me a song to sing
[Verse 3]
When I lie on my pillow I say a prayer
For the blessings you send me, and love, and care
And a world full of sunshine, and my health is fair
I'm grateful, grateful, Lord, to thee
[Outro]
(Grateful to Thee)
