Thank you, Lord, for all the blessings

You bestow so faithfully,

For all the things I don’t deserve

Yet still, in grace, you give me.

Thank you for each breath of life,

Each flow’r that cheers the way,

For each sunrise that you paint

At the start of every day.

Thank you for the answered prayers,

For always taking time.

Though you’re the God of everyone

You hear each prayer of mine.

Thank you for the evening breeze

That breathes your love into my ear;

Thank you, Father, for the peace

You give for every fear.

And for one very special gift,

I thank you, God above:

For all the ones whom I hold dear

Who fill my life with joy and love.

Thank you also for the strength

That comes when needed most,

For the comfort when I grieve,

For your guidance when I’m lost.

Thank you for the little birds

That remind me of your care.

Thank you also for your pledge

Of always being there.

But most of all, I thank you, Lord,

For Your Son’s beloved hands

Pierced and nailed upon that cross

So I could have a chance.

Thank you, Lord, for oh so much!

Your goodness overflows

Like a river does its banks

With melting sheets of snow.

Father, may I always have

A heart that’s full of thanks to Thee

For blessings great and small—

And Your great favor shown to me.
