I love the little things others do for me, Lord,
things that really make my day!
But I think I too often overlook, I miss, I just don't see
all the little things YOU do for me:
I forget that all good gifts, big and small,
come from your heart and hand - into mine...
It's so easy for me, each day, to miss all the ways you:
whisper your word in my heart
open my eyes to beauty
lead my mind to the truth
help me make the right choice
give me the strength to go on
show me the path to take
give me a second chance
open my eyes to what's just
lift me up when I'm feeling down
restore my trust when I'm doubtful
forgive me again and again
calm my troubled heart
invite me to walk by your side
touch my heart with healing
send me your Spirit's wisdom
steer me away from trouble
never leave my side
give me a reason to smile
draw me out of my fear
nudge me to do the right thing
lead me to trust in your love
call me to spend time in prayer...
Actually - these aren't small things at all, Lord!
These are big things, important things,
things you do for me all the time
- and more than I can count...
Still, all too often, Lord, I overlook, I miss, I just don't see
so many things you do for me, large and small
so I pray you'll open me
to all the gifts and blessings I receive:
little things you do for me - that aren't so small at all...
Amen.
