Giving Thanks
Beresford Hammond (b.August 28,1955 Annotto Bay,St.Mary, Jamaica) has only really risen to become popular in the 'digital' age of Reggae, although his career stretches back to the 1970's. Considered by many to be one of Jamaica's finest contemporary vocalists, his best work has generally been captured on the 'Penthouse' and 'Xterminator' labels as well as his own 'Harmony House' imprint. The singer with his distictive 'Bourbon on the rocks' vocal style remains active today both recording and producing.

Giving Thanks
by Beres Hammond

Right ya now, I\\'m taking it easy,
Check my steps, I\\'m not in a hurry,
Soon I\\'ll have the things that I needed so bad.
Morning sun rising behind me,
Stars at night come out to remind me,
To give thanks for all of the things that I have.

All is well, I\\'ve got my health and in such good shape,
Pocket\\'s broke and I\\'ve got nothing waiting for that break.
So I\\'m giving thanks, all I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks, whether or not,
I\\'m giving thanks for the life in me,
I\\'m giving thanks now.

Right ya now, the friends I\\'m surrounded,
Are but few, glad I\\'m not crowded,
Just enough, just enough for me to concentrate.
One by one, counting my blessings,
Getting close to goals that I\\'m setting,
If I make mistake, correct me, don\\'t you hesitate.

All is well, I\\'ve got my health and in such good shape,
Pocket\\'s broke and I have nothing waiting for that break.
So I\\'m giving thanks, all I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks, whether or not,
I\\'m giving thanks for the life I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks now.
Yes I\\'m giving thanks, all I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks, whether or not,
I\\'m giving thanks for the life I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks now.

Right ya now, I\\'m taking it easy,
Check my steps, I\\'m not in a hurry,
Soon I\\'ll have the things that I needed so bad.
Morning sun rising behind me,
Stars at nights come out to remind me,
To give thanks for all of the things that I have.

All is well, I\\'ve got my health and in such good shape,
Pocket\\'s broke and I have nothing waiting for that break.
Now I\\'m giving thanks, all I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks, whether or not,
I\\'m giving thanks for the life I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks now.
Yes I\\'m giving thanks, all I\\'ve got,
I\\'m giving thanks, whether or not,
I\\'m giving thanks for the life in me,
I\\'m giving thanks now ...
