Thank You For This Life
Thank you for this life that you've given me
Thank you for your eyes when I couldn't see
Thank you for your love when all I had was hate
Thank you for your care when I wasn't feeling great
Thank you for your patience when all I had was trouble
Thank you for your words when I was kneeling in the rubble
Thank you for listening when all I had was pain
And thank you for being there and that walk in that rain
Thank you for your light when darkness surrounded me
Thank you for your trust and your honesty
Thank you for your never ending compassion when all I could do was compare
And thank you for your warmth and you're forever loving stare
Thank you for the gifts only now have I really appreciated
Thank you for your time it was never ever wasted
Thank you for always doing your best
Thank you for telling me not to worry about keeping up with the rest
Thank you for holding on when I tried to pull away
Thank you for letting me go, but I really wanted to stay
Thank you for your encouragement so that I followed my own goals
Thank you for being silent so I could hear my own soul
Thank you for your support when I followed my own heart
And thank you for staying strong that day I broke apart
Thank you for understanding when all I did was fail
Thank you for telling me just keep trying and you will prevail
Thank you for your healing hands they never hurt me, not once
Thank you for your wisdom that day I wanted to jump
Thank you for your tears and for encouraging me to cry
Thank you for the truth when all I wanted to do was die
Thank you, you saved my life
Thank you for your strength when I could no longer fight
Thank you for your words when I couldn't even speak
Thank you for this voice that you have given me.
