I lay and stare up at the moon
think of all that I should be grateful for
the tears will always come but soon
I will be walking through a new door

Though sometimes I can't see
where I'm going and who's leading me
whatever it takes
I'll strain to see the good in things and

Celebrate the life I've got
even when pain finds me
I'll give it my best show
celebrate what you gave me

I met and married a great girl
family, friends and a faith that has kept me strong
I'm not alone in this big world
the advice they give has never steered me wrong

Well, things are never perfect and there's always pain, always fear
but I'll jump up and sing, I won't lose sight of this through all my tears
and celebrate life
