A Christian Thank You - 2
Thank You, God, for your grace
For your joy, hope and peace
Thank You for the way You change
Hearts from hard to hearts who
Believe in a love that is alive inside
Where Your spirit overshadows
All the hardness – the loathing
That comes from a heart who
Doesn’t truly know Him, a heart
Who doesn’t sincerely believe
That His Son, Jesus, was the One
To bring salvation to His people
Thank You, God, for Your wisdom
For Your light shining in the dark
Calming every worry, destroying
All the depression that tries to
Fill hearts with silhouettes of doubt
Feelings that cause a life to abound
With despair, dread and everything
That makes the heart feel so down
Thank You, dear God, for Your kindness
The warmth that You color our life with
The sweetness of a love that lingers inside
Where we can always know it will bring to life
Joy that overflows the doubt, wonder which
Allows the spirit to breath in the beauty
Of inspiration and imagination, peace that reflects
Whispers of astonishment and prayers
Filled with the knowledge of a light
Which never fades, a light that spreads
Its rays across the spirit, into the life
Of the one who listens to the sound of hope
Falling from the heavens where He gives out
Assurance that we have the answers to our prayers
In the One who gave us a second chance,
Forgiveness of our sins and a sincere confidence
Within where we can feel His love filling us up
With the spirit that is His gift – His hope
The wonder of His spirit guiding us to become
People who shine a light across the entire world
