Thankful
Embracing Gratitude: Josh Groban's Thankful Lyrics Illuminate the Beauty Around Us
Lyrics
Somedays, we forget to look around us
Somedays, we overlook the things around us
Somedays, we can't see the joy that surrounds us
Somedays, we fail to recognize the joy in our surroundings
So caught up inside ourselves
Caught up in our own concerns
We take when we should give
We sometimes take instead of giving
So for tonight we pray for
For tonight, we pray for
What we know can be
Believing in what we know is possible
And on this day we hope for
On this day, we hope for
What we still can't see
A future that is still unseen
It's up to us, to be the change
It's our responsibility to bring about change
And even though we all can still do more
Despite our capability to do more
There's so much to be thankful for
There's much to be thankful for
Look beyond ourselves
Encouraging to look beyond our own concerns
There's so much sorrow
There is considerable sorrow in the world
It's way too late to say, I'll cry tomorrow
Expressing the lateness in regret, no time to postpone tears
Each of us must find our truth
Each person must discover their own truth
We're so long overdue
Acknowledging that change is overdue
So for tonight we pray for
For tonight, we pray for
What we know can be
Believing in what we know is possible
And everyday, we hope for
Every day, we hope for
What we still can't see
A future that is still unseen
It's up to us, to be the change
It's our responsibility to bring about change
And even though we all can still do more
Despite our capability to do more
There's so much to be thankful for
There's much to be thankful for
Even with our differences
Despite our differences
There is a place we're all connected
We share a connection that binds us
Each of us can find each others light
Each person can find light in others
So for tonight, we pray for
For tonight, we pray for
What we know can be
Believing in what we know is possible
And on this day, we hope for
On this day, we hope for
What we still can't see
A future that is still unseen
It's up to us, to be the change
It's our responsibility to bring about change
And even though this world needs so much more
Despite the world's need for more
There's so much to be thankful for
There's much to be thankful for
