Lyrics

Take time to give thanks, make time to be given
I'm going to stop and think twice about the way that I'm living
Did I say a kind word, am I proud of my actions?
You know a job well done, gives me satisfaction
Can I earn your trust, your love and affection?
Just one step at a time in the right direction
Going to aim for the sky keep my feet on the ground
Raise my voice to the heavens make a joyful sound
Na na na na na na na na, make a joyful sound
Can I sing for my supper and play for my rent
I know it sounds funny but it's how my time's spent
Greet everyday with full purpose with passion and pride
I'm going to follow my heart and have nothing to hide
A moment of insight, I know why I'm here
You know when the time just stops see it all real clear
I've got to set an example make some mischief and fun
Do unto others and play a fat bass run
Na na na na na na na na
Make a joyful sound I got to work hard everyday and give it my best
Grab hold of fear and negativity and lay them to rest
I know my time here's important, can I do the right thing?
Practice patience and forgiveness feel the joy that they bring
Can I lay down tonight without feeling regret?
I know the love that I give becomes the love that I get
Well do you hear what I'm saying making sense to you?
Well if you feel it in your heart then you might want to sing too
Na na na na na na na na, make a joyful sound
I don't want to sound preachy make you feel all wrong
Just want to write some kind lyrics sing a feel good song
It's kind of hard to explain it is just a feeling I get
From making music making love getting both feet wet
Well every piece to the puzzle snapped tight to the groove
I Close my eyes breathe deeply and let my feet move
You know I feel a little better now for speaking my mind
Good vibes in circulation and see who they find
Na na na na na na na na, make a joyful sound
