Thank You, Lord

I thank You, Lord
I thank You so much 
If I had Avogadro's number of tongues, 
I simply just could not thank You enough.
I thank You for every one of my five senses:
Thank You for smell, thnk You for taste,
Thank You for sight, hearing, and touch.
I thank You for all of my life's lessons:
I thank You for all of the blessings
That I realized You gave me
And the one's that I could not see
With my human eyes.

I thank You Lord for my friends and my family
I thank You for my enemies
I thank You for not allowing them to get the best of me
I thank You for revealing them to me,
When thet were disguised.
I thank You in advance
For another chance,
After I had messed up so many times
And before I mess up some more.
I thank You Lord for what you have in store.
