For all your blessings
the abundance around us, for all that is
our struggles, our journey
Your presence with us
To you, Lord, we are thankful
for life, for new life in You
for the Creator, the Savior
Your Spirit within us
We thank you for family
for friends here with us
we thank You for all Your blessings
the journey here on earth
We pray for our loved ones
those distant from us now
we pray for all people
that your peace would come down
We thank You, our God
for all that we have
grateful for Your blessing
let Your love fill our hearts
Amen
