I wish I could be
Always thankful to stars
That glow and shine
For people like me

I wish I could be
Always thankful to birds
That sing and fly
For people like me

I wish I could be
Always thankful to flowers
That bloom and shine
For people like me

I wish I could be
Always thankful to candles
That burn so bright
for people like me

I wish I could be
Always thankful to the Lord
Who gives and guides
For people like me.
