I take so many things for granted, Lord,
so many things for which I should be grateful, like
- your grace helping me make it
from one day to the next...
- the courage I found to face the things
I feared would overwhelm me...
- the compassion to reach out and serve
in ways I thought beyond my grasp...
- the loyalty that keeps me faithful
when others aren't faithful to me...
- the endurance to continue
when I'm ready to throw in the towel....
- the faith to trust and believe
on those days when I just can't find you...
- the hope that keeps me going
when despair's a tempting option...
- friends who are always there for me,
in good times and in bad...
I take so many things for granted, Lord:
make me grateful today
for the graces and gifts that slip,
all the time,
from you hands into mine...
Amen.
