[Verse]
I'm thankful for the lessons, they're written in the rain,
Through every joy and heartache, through every ounce of pain.
I'm learning life's a dance, a rhythm sweet and true,
To respect the grace it offers, in all it leads me through.
[Verse]
Kindness is a lantern, it glows in darkened skies,
A beacon that reminds me to keep the hurt aside.
For every soul I pass, a story I can't view,
'Cause you don't know the battles that the other person's due.
[Chorus]
Oh, thankful for the turning and the spaces in between,
Where life's a grand instructor in the seen and unseen.
Compassion is the music and humanity's the tune,
A song we share together under sun and under moon.
[Bridge]
The faces of the strangers, the ones you’ll never know,
Might be hiding their own weather, a tempest in its throes.
So treat them with a kindness, a smile, a chance to see,
That love can heal most anything, as simple as can be.
[Verse]
Each moment is my teacher, each whisper holds a line,
From poetry of patience, to lessons all divine.
And every time I stumble, the melody stays clear,
To lift me to forgiveness, for myself and those held near.
[Chorus]
Oh, thankful for the turning and the spaces in between,
Where life's a grand instructor in the seen and unseen.
Compassion is the music and humanity's the tune,
A song we share together under sun and under moon.
