Verse 1
I’ve walked through valleys where the shadows stayed,
Carried old burdens that I should've laid.
Made some mistakes, took a few wrong turns,
But every scar became a lesson learned.
The road got rough, the nights got long,
Still I found a reason to carry on.
One step forward when I couldn't see,
Grace kept whispering, "Just believe."
Pre-Chorus
Every mountain, every trial,
Helped shape this heart all the while.
Chorus
I'm grateful for who I am today,
Not because the journey was an easy way.
Every stumble, every tear that fell,
Had a story, had a truth to tell.
The sun keeps rising, the tide keeps rolling,
My heart keeps growing, my spirit keeps flowing.
With love as my compass and faith as my flame,
I'm thankful for the road that made me who I am today.
Verse 2
I've met good people along the way,
Some came to stay, some couldn't stay.
But every soul left a little light,
Helping me navigate through the night.
Now I see blessings I once ignored,
Peace in the simple, not needing more.
A grateful heart and an open hand,
Trying to leave this world better than I found it.
Chorus
I'm grateful for who I am today,
Not because the journey was an easy way.
Every stumble, every tear that fell,
Had a story, had a truth to tell.
The sun keeps rising, the tide keeps rolling,
My heart keeps growing, my spirit keeps flowing.
With love as my compass and faith as my flame,
I'm thankful for the road that made me who I am today.
Bridge
So let the winds blow where they may,
I'll keep dancing through another day.
No looking back with regret or shame,
Every chapter helped write my name.
Final Chorus
I'm grateful for who I am today,
Standing in the light of a brand-new day.
With kindness leading every step I take,
And a heart still willing to bend, not break.
The sun keeps rising, the tide keeps rolling,
My heart keeps growing, my spirit keeps flowing.
With love as my compass and faith as my flame,
I'm thankful for the road that made me who I am today.
