Giving Thanks
Beres Hammond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
Well 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, ooh
I'm giving thanks, all I've got
I'm giving thanks, whether or not
I'm giving thanks for the life in me
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, ooh
I'm giving thanks, now, all I've got
I'm giving thanks, whether or not
I'm giving thanks for the life in me, yeah
I'm giving thanks
