I totally identified with this song because we so often focus on all the things we need and want and hope to accomplish that we miss out on the simple blessings we have every day, like the sunrise and just being able to breathe. We take so much for granted, as if we're promised another day, but we see stories all the time of people who didn't have another day. This song is a call to be thankful and remember the gift of life.

Been driving through the night
I pull up and see the lights
This is the place that I call home
I watch you as you sleep
Think of all you mean to me
Touch your face
Kiss you softly
Before I go to sleep pray under the stars
Search my soul and check my heart
And thank God for
Another day
Another chance to love the ones I love
To find my way
To laugh, to dance
Watch the sun come up
Another day I get to live
As if
Every breath could be the last I take
I get another day
I've got a hand that I can hold
Someone who knows my soul
A safe place to lay my head at night
So why do I forget
How much I've been blessed in life
Forget what means the most to me
As I'm waking up I feel my beating heart
So grateful that I've come this far
And thank God for
Chorus
To make somebody smile
Go the extra mile
Take a wrong and make it right
And try to touch somebodys life
