Dear God,

Thank you for every day

Your very loving way

All the battles you fight

Your guiding light

As you give us strength

Whenever we talk at length

The purpose you made clear

Removing our fear

Turning us around

Putting us on solid ground

Building our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

Giving us pleasure

Beyond all measure

Every single chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Revealing what’s in stone

For never leaving us alone

The beautiful home

Where our souls can roam

For the smile

That travels about a mile

Things that are real

What we can’t conceal

Dear God,

Thank you for every journey

Meant just for us only

For lifting us up

Filling every cup

Giving us something pure

Making us feel secure

Teaching us to live

Teaching us how to give

For giving us a place

Filled with mercy and grace

The encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

Removing all doubt

That things will work out

For giving us a name

Removing our shame

Helping us stand

With one touch of your hand

Making us see

What’s meant to be

The perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

Thank you God
