"Take Up Your Spade"

Found this little diddy, "Take Up Your Spade" by Sara Watkins, tonight as I listened to music on Spotify. It's a beautiful melody with inspirational words. It reminds me to keep going and to be thankful for life. Do yourself a favor and listen to the song while you read the lyrics. Enjoy.

Sun is up, a new day is before you
Sun is up, wake your sleepy soul
Sun is up, hold on to what is yours
Take up your spade and break ground

Shake off your shoes, 
Leave yesterday behind you
Shake off your shoes, 
But forget not where you’ve been
Shake off your shoes,
Forgive and be forgiven
Take up your spade and break ground

Give thanks, for all that you’ve been given
Give thanks, for who you can become
Give thanks, for each moment and every crumb
Take up your spade and break ground
Break ground, break ground, break ground
