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!!! :')

That Jennifer Hudson is a POWER HOUSE!!! 🤗

They did this song justice!!!! Walter Hawkins and Lynette should be truly pleased!

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!

Jennifer sends me chills everytime I hear her sing! She has that gospel, get someone saved, make you wanna live right voice!

Forest has a calming and beautiful voice. I love it. Just beautiful.

Forest Whitaker has gave me another reason to absolutely love him!

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.

All I have to say is Jennifer Hudson that voice WOW!!!

Jennifer Hudson needs to sing gospel

Love this song by Jennifer Hudson Be greatful

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

Jennifer is always amazing

With all of my imperfections GOD still hears and answers my prayers...

2021 and this song is still one of my favorites from this movie🙌🏾🖤

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!

beautiful song still hitting 2021

This song is song that stirs your Spirit Man , when uncertainty arises in your life.

my favorite song from the movie

I LOVE IT!!!!!! I didn't even know Forest could sing, what a delightful surprise!!!!

What a blessing u are Jennifer Hudson♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️Beeeeeee Graaaaaatteeeeeefulllll ...... I FEEL YAH BABE

All of them sound so great

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!!

My favorite version of this joint gone Jhud❤🙏🏾

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..

Jennifer your voice just speaks to me. Thank you for sharing HaShems Gift with the world.. May the Lord Bless and Keep All of you... #grateful

I love this song & I am greatful for how god kept me.

Forrest sounds so sweet and distinguished. I never knew he had that voice ❤

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 !!!

this is an awesome remake of Bishop Walter Hawkins song, he would be Godly proud. Rest in the Lord Bishop

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

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 🕊

I love the original version and I love this version. I noticed that I have been listening, to more spiritual songs and songs that glorify our God.

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!

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.

This song has been on repeat!

Dang I didn't no forest whitaker could sing or angela bassett could sing two thumbs up.

Esta musica me encanta 🙏

I really loved the music in this film and I can't believe how beautiful Forest Whitaker's voice is! Resonant. OMG! Wow!

Such a beautiful song

Welcome to 2022! The message is the same - be grateful. Thank you Lord.

This song is perfect.

I'm getting the chills listening to this!!

I was watching Jingle Jangle on Netflix last Friday. I forgot Forrest Whittaker could sing this good. But Jennifer Hudson is the MVP of this song. I was almost 21 when this movie came out. I’ll be 28 in February!

God is truly Good ~ ALL THE TIME! 🙏🏽😇

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!

Be grateful for everything you got! Some don't have what you have!

this is the song I play every year

SANG PASTOR! Jacob Latimore Sung His Butt Off In This Movie It Was Great!

Despite anything and all that has gone on in my life and is still going on I have to be Grateful for it all.

Feels like Christmas Day again.....

Awesome cool version God we are truly grateful

you got a nice voice Jennifer Hudson.

I love this movie!! they all did an amazing job!! n tht ms incredible Jennifer Hudson! she made u feel every song

BE GRATEFUL, CAUSE THEY'RE IS SOMEONE WHO WOULD LOVE TO BE IN YOUR SHOES !!!!! 😊😊😊😊💯

I straight up cries during this song if the movie.

I absolutely love this song!!!!!!

I love this song and I am grateful for everything I got because someone people don't have what I got

Be grateful 👌j Hudson...did that...touching to my heart

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

I so love this song😇#Be grateful for all things

Jennifer gospel alone (Great)

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

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.!!!!!!!!!!

amazing song and great movie with tyrese Gibson

Love it! Walter Hawkins is brilliant and blessed by God

Truly a Blessing

I am truely Grateful for Almighty God....Without him i would be nothing.....

Thanks soooo much for posting this. I just saw the movie and it was so powerful! I am so grateful!! Thank you once again! Thank you, Thank you!

Sing Jennifer! Love You!

Amen. I am grateful

This song gives me the chills everytime I listen to it! So beautiful 😍❤️

Lord I thank you for your grace, and Mercy.

Let the ⛪say amen

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.

A wonderful song.

Be Grateful Because theres someone worse off than you Be Grateful At all times count Your Blessings One at a time Glory Be To God.............Amen

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.

hey j Hudson

This such a powerful song!

The people who disliked are not grateful and I bet 2020 humbled them.

Oh my gosh he is so good I will try to be as good as him I wach this every time

AMEN YSSSSSS......THANK YOU
