I am an artist of a kind
Painting my pictures in your hearts and in your minds
Searching for treasure and sharing what I find
It's a good life yes it's a good life
And I thank God for the colours
For the light and for the shade
The beauty of creation
Everything that He has made
I've known the sorrow and the pain
Of times when I wondered if I'd ever smile again
I wished that it was over but my wishing was in vain
But it's a long road - yes it's a long road
Still I thank God for the colours
For the light and for the shade
The beauty of creation
Everything that She has made
And I've known the joy of being free
Felt like the world was made especially for me
I'm grateful for everyone who taught me how to be
On my journey this blessed journey
And I thank God for the colours
For the light and for the shade
The beauty of creation
Every thing that God had made
Yes I am an artist of a kind
Painting my pictures in your hearts and in your minds
Searching for treasure and sharing what I find
It's a good life yes it's a good life
It's a good life it's been a good life
