Father thank you for this day, <br />whatever it may bring; <br />whatever comes my way, <br />my heart to you will sing. <br /> <br />You lead me from the darkness, <br />into the paths of light; <br />keeping me from evil, <br />turning back the night. <br /> <br />Father thank you for this day, <br />when love is in the air; <br />when the heart is warmed, <br />by the friends that care. <br /> <br />Your truth is shining brightly, <br />in the shadow's den; <br />in the winding rivers, <br />where the forests bend. <br /> <br />Father thank you for this day, <br />in the power of a prayer; <br />in the laughter of a child, <br />your sweet presence we all share.<br /><br />David Lessard<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/father-thank-you-for-this-day/
