Lyrics
CHORUS
I've got an attitude of gratitude
Lifts me up when I?m feeling down
And with this attitude of gratitude
My little light can shine all around
I've got an attitude of gratitude
Lifts me up when I?m feeling down
And with this attitude of gratitude
My little light can shine all around
VERSE 1
Thankful for my family, all their love surrounds me
Thanks for people in my life
Grateful for the gifts God has given me
Leading me with his guiding light
When I?m feeling sad and things are looking bad
Maybe things aren?t going my way
If I try to real hard and turn my heart around
Gratitude makes it easy to say
CHORUS
VERSE 2
Everybody knows that life can be a challenge
Hard times can get you down
When I change my heart, give thanks for all I have
My attitude can turn my life around
Gratitude can really change the way I?m feeling
Make a bad day seem all right
When I?m thankful for the gifts that I?ve been given
Gratitude can make my future bright
CHORUS
CODA
My little light can shine all around
My little light can shine all around
