With gratitude to The Source, The Giver of Life.
In the wee hours of my awakening
You kept me from falling
You saved my life, though I'd tasted poison
You saw me drowning and sent hands to help me,
Thank You.
Thank You for seeing me safely through hurricanes
Thank You for sunshine and rain
Thank You for sending me aboard two helpful planes.
Though fire and ice were harsh,
Thank You for safety and warmth
Though mine eyes were clouded by fear,
Thank You for Your grace, endless as time so near
Though I sometimes forget how much You care,
You caused me to listen with my inner ear,
Thank You.
Thank You for giving me a second chance at life
Thank You for hearing my prayers day and night
Thank You for Your inextinguishable light.
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.
