I'm Thankful

Verse 1

I'm thankful for my house

But what if I had never met my wife?

I'd have to live a different kind of life

Verse 3

Through thousands and millions of years

If any one of them had ever died too young

Or simply never met

Well, you and me and everything we know

Would all be gone

Verse 4

And if the asteroids that hit the earth

Had missed the dinosaurs

Then humans might not ever have existed

And if the continents had never drifted

Then maybe all the animals would be different

Verse 5

And if the moon had never come to be

Then maybe there would be no oceans on the land

And maybe there would be no life at all

It's such a miracle

Verse 6
