Thanksgiving

When I think about and remember how
There was no way out and You rescued me
There's no reason why You loved me then
And You love me now
'Least no reason I can see

You had always been my closest friend
Even though I'd never defended that
I was so far away, as far as ever I could stray
But You were there to bring me back

THANK YOU, JESUS, FOR THE GRACE THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN US
We could ne'er repay, but from my heart I'd like to say
That I thank You

There's so much to learn about how to turn
All Your words of life that burn in me
Into a living fountain flowing deep, and flowing clean
So that all can come and drink

But I know You're right there, willing to prepare
This open heart of mine to carry on
To the place where I can be Your servant
Be Your friend
One that You can depend on

THANK YOU, JESUS, FOR THE GRACE THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN US
We could ne'er repay, but from my heart I'd like to say
That I thank You
