Some people wake up feeling shy, some wake up asking why?
I wake up giving thanks
Thanks for loving me so much
Setting your plans for me with your spiritual touch
What is it about me that makes you raise the sun in the morning?
Or when in danger my spirit becomes a warning
As a child I stumble, as a man you make me humble
Even in times of trouble you’ve become my protective bubble
The tongue is strong so when I speak with belief I shall receive…In your timing of course
For this Lord, I give you thanks
You once said to me:
“I am the burning man spreading through the field
I am the unseen air trying to be still
I am the everlasting light whether day or night
I am the slippery rain waiting to ignite
I am the thunderous sounds chanting down with might
I am the lightening rod who strikes to fight”
Hearing this makes me give thanks
Thanks for raising me up from the dead
Illuminating my soul with the sweet taste of your bread
For I know I am not being mislead
So Father Lord I give you thanks
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, all praises to the king
His love is fresher than spring so today I will truly sing
Listen and Listen patiently, he said cleave to this with certainty
“You are dust moulded into perfection
Bold and strong you overcome any oppression
You are the protectors of this righteous realm
Wield your double edged swords, my word will overwhelm
Go forth and have dominion for you and I are one
Side by side like Father and Son”
All I want to say is thanks, thanks, I give you thanks
For all you have done, for I am so blessed and my soul is at rest
Oh Lord I give you thanks.
Lord, lead me to your altar as I say “yes” to your offer
You’ve filled my heart with laughter
For I know you are more than a conqueror
I bow, as I give myself away for you have known me since day
Your word says:
“When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child
I thought as a child but now I am a man, I put away childish things”
I am a youth but I’ve set my foot on a road called truth
What can I do? I just give him thanks
