I thank you for the breath in my body as I arise <br />I thank you God for sleep to rest my eyes <br /> <br />Thank you oh God for friends who are many <br />Thank you for the sky above <br />Thank you most of all for Jesus <br />And for family you loaned to us to love <br /> <br />Thank you for tonight <br />Thank you for tomorrow too <br />Oh God I just want to say thank you <br />For all of your mercy and forgiveness and all you do <br /> <br />Friends come and go but you remain the same <br />I am so thankful I can call upon your wonderful name <br /> <br />Father teach me guide me help me to be more like you <br />Lord guide my mind my heart and my life too <br /> <br />I will serve you all of my days <br />I will glorify your name with my ways <br /> <br />We are so weak in comparison to you father God <br />But help us to be humble <br />As we wait to go home with you <br />And upon this earth continue to trod <br /> <br />Let us not look back but forward to seeing you <br />Lord let us remember always to say Oh God <br />How we thank you! <br />©Copyright Becky LaPrarie 2005<br /><br />Becky LaPrarie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-i-thank-you-oh-god/
