HOW DO I THANK YOU?



HOW DO I THANK YOU?

How do I thank You, for all that You've done?
How do I thank You, for making me my parents son?
How do I thank You for the Salvation You freely give?
How do I thank You, for this life I now live
How do I thank You, Lord, I don't know how to thank You
For all You continuously do

There's so much, Lord, to be thankful for
And tomorrow, You'll give even more
Eternity in Your presence, and still my gratitude won't fade
For the Glory, in everything You've ever made

I thank You, for the times you saved my life
I thank You, for the love of my wife
I thank You, for the joy of my Salvation
I want to thank You, in every situation

How do I thank You, at the foot of the Cross?
As I watch You bare, my sin, shame and loss.
How do I thank You, for the empty tomb?
So all my heart, I make for You a room

Oh my Lord, I live to thank You
Take my life, an offering for You
Oh my Lord, all my heart is Yours
Your Grace my heart adores
AMEN
