I'm Alright

Some say life is hard

Like swimming upstream

or going against the grain

But I say life ain't that hard

'Cause I've seen how

the joy outweighs the pain

So you can sit and whine

about the times you've been having

Oh but as for me I choose to be

as happy as I can be

Because I'm Alright

Trouble may find me

but it's not gonna keep me down

'Cause I'll hold on tight

To the Father who loves me

and likes having me around

'Cause He loves me, and He cares for me,

And so I'll be alright

We go round and round

Back and forth and almost upside down

To buy who we are -

A great big house, nice jeans, and a shiny car

But I'm learning that this world keeps turning

with or without me

So I'll do my best and leave the rest

to the one watching over me

Because I'm Alright

Trouble may find me

but it's not gonna keep me down

'Cause I'll hold on tight

To the Father who loves me

and likes having me around

'Cause He loves me, and He cares for me,

And so I'll be alright

But I'm learning that this world keeps turning

with or without me

So I'll do my best and leave the rest

to the one watching over me.

Because I'm Alright

Trouble may find me

but it's not gonna keep me down

'Cause I'll hold on tight

To the Father who loves me

and likes having me around

'Cause He loves me, and He cares for me,

And so I'll be alright
