I thought I was the ONLY one that listens to this song over 20 times LITERALLY!!! I'm in LOVE with this movie and the WHOLE soundtrack!!!!! It REALLY speaks to me and lifts my spirit!!! :')
Amen, I love this song too It really lifts my spirits and reminds me to thank Jesus anytime the enemy tries to come at me. Perfect song to remind those who wanna have a pity party when they woke up this morning and that’s a blessing in itself. We got breath in our bodies! 💪😍😄Amen!
No matter how many times I listen, this song gives me chills. GRATEFULLNESS is the answer and the key to a joyous life. Appreciate everything and you are bound to be blessed!
Be grateful Be grateful God has not promised me Sunshine That's not the way it's going to be But a little rain Mixed with God's sunshine, a little pain(a Grateful place) Makes me appreciate the good times Be grateful(2x's) God desires to feel your longings Every pain that you feel, he feels them Just like you But he can't afford to let you feel only good (only good) Then you can appreciate the good time Be grateful(2x's) Cause there's someone else who's worse off than you Be grateful Cause that someone else who'd love to be in your shoes Be grateful He said in his word that he will never forsake you Be grateful Can't say you this word that he will never leave you Be grateful, Be grateful Be grateful, hey yeah Be grateful, be great Ul For everything that you have So be grateful For everything you are Grateful You gotta be grateful For it will be alright
Forest Whitaker, Jennifer Hudson, Jacob Lattimore, Luke James, and Tyrese. Lawd have mercy. So much talent on one song. Thank you, Jesus for the anointed voices.
I just lost it when Jennifer said "Even though I don't have everything I want in life, Lord I'm grateful!" I couldn't contain myself. Oh glory to the name of Jesus! Lord I thank you!
Be grateful because you do not know what others are going through, if your going through anything it is never too hard for God to fix... Be grateful because there is someone else who would love to be in your shoes..
This song truly ministered to my soul! I heard a snippet of it in the movie theaters and just had to hear the whole song! Jennifer Hudson is soo phenomenal!! I'm reminded of Philippians 4:11-13 by this song! I don't have everything I want but I have everything that I need and for that I am so grateful to God!!
I promise that this song has saved everyone's life at my job. When the buttheads of my job try to push me to break some of His commandments, I turn this song on put in my headphones and have church!
MY MY MS JENNIFER HUDSON AND FOREST WHITAKER SANG THIS SONG SO BEAUTIFULLY ... IT'S BEING ON MY MINE ALL DAY LONG... GOD KNOWS IT'S ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVORITE ... AMEN & HALLELUJAH FOREVER PRASING HIS HOLY NAME !!!
He cannot afford to let you feel only 😌 good🙏🏻♥️ We are tested by the almighty in good&bad times ♥️be grateful for everything that you’ve got!!!!! Love the movie & the voices of pure love soul & uplifting the spirit 🕊
Jacob Latimore are my boy I always had listening to his music before they even had made this movie. And whoever had put Jennifer Hudson and him as mother and son In the movie they had had did A great job
This was a good surprise. I never knew that Forrest, could sing. He is very good. Would love to hear more of him, and what can you say about Jennifer, that hasn't already been said. I've always said that I'm white on the outside but on the inside I'm black all the way thru. Love Gospel,Jazz, and soul music. Well hopefully Forrest will honor us with some more music one day. I, say if you got it,use it.

Yassssssssssssssssssssssss this is my song && it's the best gospel song I have ever heard. Jennifer Hudson, Forest Whitaker && Jacob Latimore did that && Black Nativity is my favorite movie
lol, I'm glad to hear I am not the only one who has listened to this 20xs. I grew up listening to the album back in the 80's but wow! This is an amazing Version!! LOVE IT!
Just watched the movie this Christmas Day 2022, and fell in love with their versus in the movie.. Jennifer was all that and more thank you. Made for a beautiful ending to a very grateful day!
I am today more than ever. I live in Africa and South Africa to be country specific. Today African countries and South African Africans fight among themselves, kill innocent men, women and children for power, for politics, out of desperation, some go to bed hungry and food insecure, diseased, no religion or education, freedom and dignity to live in peace and harmony. I have so much to be grateful for in spite my challenging circumstances. I have life, good health, sound mind and heart and God. I am indeed Grateful to God for Loving me and protecting me during these troubling times.
This is the year 2015 and the first time I heard this song by Forrest Whitaker and Jennifer. Hudson I fell in LOVE because it was one of the most beautiful songs I've heard and I have heard some beautiful songs.!!!!!!!!!!
Still at a loss for words...definitely a right on time movie for this season...I laughed, I cried, I sang along in the theater (luckily it was only 4 of us in there)....but a must see again and again....and again
Be grateful if u have a home around this time of the year. It's cold out and it's no joke being street homeless. Be so grateful and never take people and things for granted. Be very grateful if u have a home cause I wish I did. Lord help me!! Pregnant and homeless the worse. Be grateful & thankful
Father God in Heaven - you know how grateful I am for this piece of Gospel Musich as one of my most favored. It inspires and encourages the beauty of YOU and how you've kept me through many medical trials! So Grateful!! Several moments bedridden, so Grateful!! How you've blessed my family, Music and it's healing properties - Mostly Your presence in everyday life in all things how you teach the truth through others!! So Grateful, Thank You!!!
I enjoyed the movie. This cover is wonderful too. I wish they would let us purchase the single to this song on itunes instead of making us buy the entire soundtrack.
God's gifts are very powerful and all these people have them all of those people sang well but that little young blood tore the roof door and floor praise God off that church. I came from the streets in my youth and the way he sang that song. And that homeless man out attitude of gratitude is being thankful for just food clothes a place to stay and not being in prison or in trouble or just free from some crazy man that was trying to mess us up. We are very very grateful to Jesus for helping and saving we are grateful for what we got BUT WE ARE GOT BJT MORE GRATIFUL FOR WHAT WE ARE NOT And that's not being a fool for any thing or any body any more baby that's SOMETHING TO BE GRATEFUL FOR AND THAT YOUNG BOY AND THAT HOMELESS MAN REALLY EXPRESSED THAT THRU SONG AND ONLY A PERSON FROM THE HOOD COULD FIEEL IT LIKE THAT BECAUSE WE ARE SURVIVORS PRAISE GOD
Love this Song. Saw the whole movie for the first time this month. Glad I did. Beautiful singing. Inspiring story too. Thank you, Langston Hughes for the original Black Nativity that this was based upon. ❤

Cause there's someone else who's worse off than you
Be grateful
Cause that someone else who'd love to be in your shoes
Be grateful
He said in his word that he will never forsake you
