Lord I Thank You Kindly
By Franklin Price

Lord I thank you kindly
That you came into my life
That you gave me family and friends;
Could not have a better wife
That you sent such blessings to me
I'd like to thank you very much
With this prayer that I'm writing,
That helps me stay in touch.
Thank you when you use me
To help another out
To show me what to do
And what life is all about
A word, a touch an opened door
All ways of helping others
What better can we do in life
Than aid our sisters and our brothers
Please continue now to show me,
On each path, which way to go.
Can't imagine life without you,
I just wanted you to know
Lord, when my life is over,
And I pray it isn't for awhile,
And I look upon your holy face,
I hope you'll comment with a smile:
“You mostly listened to me,
And I welcome you today
And thank you for the job you did
As I sent you on life's way. “
