A helpful sparrow's come to say the day's begun;

I brew some coffee and I step out to the sun;

A lazy breeze goes gently 'cross my cheek;

I can smell the sweet perfume of jasmine by the creek;

This day is BEAUTIFUL, I SEE.

 

To start the morning, I take time for God above,

Then a couple donuts with some guys I really love;

Back at home I'm greeted by the sound of smiling eyes,

And I'm reminded of the day she was my bride;

This day is BEAUTIFUL, I SEE.

 

Never dwell on troubles, don't regret a day;

Blessings come in doubles--guess I'm gonna stay!

 

Great to have the grandkids here to spend the afternoon;

One of them reminds me of a long-forgotten tune;

I grab my guitar and get them all to sing along;

And as we're singing I can see my family's strong--

Today is beautiful, so very beautiful,

This day is BEAUTIFUL, I SEE.
