Analysis of lord thank you

Doreene Felder 1967 (Phila.)



Lord thanks for my ears
The purpose they serve
I can hear
Thanks for my eyes
I  can see
others I even see my tears
when I cry
Thanks for my teeth
I can chew food
when I eat
Thanks for my hands
I can touch and feel
and wave my hand
Thanks for my feet
I can walk and run
feel my toes
I'm not done
Thanks for my head
I have a brain  
I  can feel pain
happiness the same
you even gave me a name
I am the one you named
Thankyou lord
For everything!
