Verse 1:
A
As the sun slowly rises above the river,
 
I look out over all that God has made,
  D
I listen as the day starts to awaken.
A                                 E
I thank God for things that never change.
A
I can hear her laughing in the kitchen
 
And the sounds of little footsteps on the stairs.
D                                                                 A
I've got all I'll ever need:  my wife, my home, my family.  And I 
                                 E
Thank God for all those answered prayers.

The lessons and the mistakes

Do my best to change what I can.
