lyrics

Everyday I thank the lord
For the blessings of my life
All the power god gave me
To go on living

I'm still searching for the girlfriend
Who will come and be my wife
To each other we'll be respectful
And forgiving

I still have my old family
But I don't yet have a new one
Many old friends are gone
But new ones have come

Just a singer lookin' for a band
I always wanted to get into one
I'm the guitar man and the entertainer
Travelin' to the rhythm of different strums

Now I must admit my life's been interesting but not easy
Still I try to enjoy it and have some laughs and fun
As we gather to sit around the table
Each of us should be willing and able
To tell stories about our days of our lives that are far from done

For the sun and rain the grass and grain
And the grace of the apple seed
Before any meal we sing the praise we feel
When there are hungry mouths to feed
The food is great
The service is good
We earn our riches by thrift not by greed

I should cherish my church and home
Be true to my work and school
Try to make my dreams happen
To get the job done I count on myself

I learn from all of the mistakes I make
And follow all the rules
It takes a big strong powerful man to ask for help
Although my life is wonderful
Sometimes it gets me down
Do to the everyday problems that plague us all
Changes and choices can be beautiful
Challenges are all around
They can either be people, places and things great
Or actions small

Now I must admit my life's been interesting but not easy
Still I try to enjoy it and have some laughs and fun
As we gather to sit around the table
Each of us should be willing and able
To tell stories about our days in our lives that are far from done

For the sun and rain the grass and grain
And the grace of the apple seed
Before any meal we sing the praise we feel
When there are hungry mouths to feed
The food is great
The service is good
We save our riches by thrift never by greed
