Gratitude
Words and music by Jeanne Loehnis

Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
When challenge is concealing
all things I would call appealing
gratitude can be revealing:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
Despite all that I'm doing
I'm not winning but I'm losing.
Gratitude won't stop infusing:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
When I let go of worry
and the endless hurry scurry
gratitude comes with a flurry:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
As I trust in the process,
use the steps to cut my losses,
gratitude shows me the progress:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
When fear is overwhelming
and I feel as though I'm drowning
gratitude upturns my frowning:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
No matter my emotion,
when sweet gratitude’s in motion
I am one with the rich notion:
All is well.
Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude.
Each day is mine to focus
not on ancient hocus pocus
but a daily grateful notice:
All is well.
