Sometimes, Lord,
the best thing I can do
is just sit back and ponder:
all the many gifts you've showered on me:
my blessings, joys and peace...
All the times your hand has guided me
when I was totally lost;
all the ways you've helped me grow
when there was growing up to do;
all the times when you have pardoned me
with mercy undeserved;
all the ways your grace has helped me choose
to do the next right thing;
all the many times you've had my back,
so faithful by my side;
all the ways your hand has raised me up
from worry, doubt and fear;
when I was totally lost;
all the ways you've helped me grow
when there was growing up to do;
all the times when you have pardoned me
with mercy undeserved;
all the ways your grace has helped me choose
to do the next right thing;
all the many times you've had my back,
so faithful by my side;
all the ways your hand has raised me up
from worry, doubt and fear;
all the ways that you've reminded me
that all things shall be well;
all the times when you've empowered me
when my strength flagged and failed;
all the ways your Spirit stirred and fed
my mind's imagination;
all the times your wisdom gently tamed
my daft and foolish thoughts;
all the ways that you've restored my hope
when I thought all was lost;
and all the times you've blessed my life
with friends beyond compare...
all the times when you've empowered me
when my strength flagged and failed;
all the ways your Spirit stirred and fed
my mind's imagination;
all the times your wisdom gently tamed
my daft and foolish thoughts;
all the ways that you've restored my hope
when I thought all was lost;
and all the times you've blessed my life
with friends beyond compare...
Sometimes, Lord,
the best thing I can do
is just sit back and ponder
all the many gifts you've showered on me:
the blessing of your love,
the joy I find in serving you,
the peace that heals my soul...
Amen.
