At this moment, Lord,
all I want to do
is thank you.
Every part of me
swells with gratitude
for the goodness and mercy
you have shown to your child.
You have been my light
through the darkest of days.
You have been my strength
when I’ve battled distress.
You have been my sure path
out of the shadows.
You have been my companion
at my journey’s every turn.
And still today,
you continue to enfold me
and blanket my littleness
with the mantle of your might.
Your goodness astounds me;
your love overwhelms me.
At this moment, Lord,
all I want to do
is thank you.
