And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You for everything You are.
Yes I want to thank You, Lord. Always You’re my shining star!
Whether I’m home or far away each day I wake and as I pray
I am filled with Your Love, the guiding Presence; You will light my way!
And I want to thank You.
And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.
Yes I want to thank You, Lord. Each day is a fresh start!
I have wandered far down many byways, got turned around and headed back;
And yet through it all You’ve been beside me, never did I lack!
And I want to thank You.
And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You for living here in me.
Yes I want to thank You, Lord. That with Your eyes I see!
I see Your glory on the earth, in every human soul such worth.
Yes within each of us Your seed is planted; our lives give You birth.
And I want to thank You.
