I Am Thankful

This song has been running through my head this morning and I would like to share the words with you all:

How could I ever say thank you
When the whole of this life’s not enough
Though I offer each breath back in worship
It never could match your great love

So great are your ways
Such encompassing grace
Love that reaches beyond each defense
Your mercy disarms
The most broken of hearts
Such complete and profound faithfulness
How could I thank you

How could I ever repay you
When you laid aside heaven for me
You came to the earth, its Creator
Incarnate to set sinners free

I love you Lord
I love you Lord
I love you Lord
I love you Lord

How can I truly thank God for all He's done? For salvation and freedom, hope and peace, love and joy, I'm thankful. For my family, friends, adventures and times of quiet rest, I'm thankful. For the good, the trials, the testings, the fires, and the mountain tops where I can declare that God is good, I am thankful. For the food and friends and family that fill this day, I am thankful.
Why do we even enjoy such blessings? And then, topping it all, to think of the hope of heaven, the reunion we will will have face to face with the One who created us! Our unrighteousness will truly be purged, our sin will never be a part of us again. Our relationship with LOVE will be restored perfectly; every desire, longing, and aching met by the One who has eyes like the flame of fire.
Thank you Lord. Thank you Lord.
For You Lord, I am thankful.
