Thanksgiving

Light of the world you step 
down into darkness, 
Just to show me the 
tenderness of your love and 
kindness.
You brought love more than 
anyone did, 
And protected me right 
from when i was a kid.
You gave me every reason 
to smile, 
Making my struggle for 
salvation worth a while.
You brought to me the 
peace of heaven, 
Giving my soul joy that it 
has been craven.
You made my future so 
bright like the sun, 
And Every moment spent 
with you brings so much 
fun.
You placed gold and 
diamond on my fingers, 
And made my happiness 
lingers.
You brought joy like i have 
never known, 
And unconditional love 
beyond what i have been 
shown.
You gave life to me even 
though am a sinner, 
And amongs all my battles 
you made me a winner.
You're my shelter from all of 
earth's troubles, 
Making all my enemies to 
crumble.
When i needed hope and 
inspiration, 
You've always been there 
giving me your attention.
How about the tenderness 
of your care? , 
That wipes away all of my 
fears.
Because you liveth i can 
face tomorrow, 
Inside you there is no tears 
and no sorrow.
You've blessed me beyond 
my widest dream, 
Making me live the life of 
my dreams.
You gave up your life on the 
cross just for my sake, 
Making a sacrifice that i 
wasn't able to make.
Your blood paid that great 
price by faith, 
Just for me to be able to 
rise above hate.
You've been the best thing 
that has happen to me, 
That's why by your side is 
where i want to forever be.
You made me walk through 
the shadows of death, 
Giving me a taste of an 
heavenly rebirth.
King of all days be highly 
exalted, 
For only you can be trusted.
Thanks for everything 
you've done for me, 
Making me the best that i 
can ever be.
Amongst all the things 
you've done for me beyond 
all measures, 
Thanks for being the best 
and greatest of all my 
treasures.
