Well I woke up this morning with a song in my head
It sang the memory of you my friend, so wise and so true
Then I remembered something you touched upon. Just a week before you were gone
That to be wise, you said, is to live in gratitude
So I woke up this morning with air to breathe, water to drink, a roof and plenty of food
And I’m thinking how lucky I am to be in a place to give what I can
Just to live and to be and to share some gratitude… You told me
Wisdom is the seed of Gratitude
That blossoms as Generosity and that’s a start
And the fruit of Generosity is Prosperity, yeah
But true Prosperity, is a Grateful Heart
True Prosperity, is a Grateful Heart
At this moment, there’s someone, who needs you right now
They’ve forgotten who they are they’re feeling alone and abused
You really don’t have to look far. Just look in the mirror and remember what you are
You are light, you are love, you are the heart of gratitude
