Be Grateful Lyrics by Kurt Carr
[Verse 1:]
Grateful, Lord, I'm grateful,
Grateful for the things You've done for me.
Grateful, Lord, I'm grateful,
Grateful, I give my all to Thee.
Oh grateful,
Lord, I'm grateful,
For everything You've done for me,
You've done for me.
[Verse 2:]
Praise You, Lord, I praise You,
Praise You for the things You've done for me.
Praise You, Lord, I praise You,
Praise You, I give my all to Thee.
Oh praise You,
Lord, I praise You,
For everything You've done for me,
You've done for me.
[Bridge:]
Yes, yes, yes.
[Vamp 1:]
Hallelujah,
Because I'm grateful.
[Vamp 2:]
I lift my hands and praise You,
Because I'm grateful.
[Ending:]
For everything You've done for me,
You've done for me.
