The Gift

Thank you, for loving me
Thank you, for letting me see
All there is to live for
All the love and so much more
The dreams worth having
The chances worth grabbing
The life I could be living
The love I should be giving
For every day and every night
For hope that springs eternal light
Dancing and singing for all to hear
Turning to love and away from fear
For trusting me with all your heart
For giving my life a fresh new start
Thank you, for sticking by me
Thank you, for making me see
