Take delight in little things
Tomorrow may never come
Thank the Lord for all your blessings
Enjoy the morning sunWe wake and start
another day
Not every day is perfect
We ask for guidance when we pray
We cannot try to predict

We know our inner spirit
Do we have love and kindness?
Or, do we cop out and exit?
Do we wonder why we're friendless?
Time to think and ponder
Ask ourselves many questions
Could we be a bit humbler?
Rid ourselves of any burdens
Make our soul a bit lighter
Fill ourselves with love
Take heed it's time to wonder
And pray to God Above

We can always make a change
If we choose to improve
It is within our range
We must of course approve
So why not try to live lighter
Remove the weights that hold
Then we'll find our world brighter
We may find our heart of gold
