We thank you for these years

We praise you for your presence

your hand upon our lives

we thank you for the year ending

the blessings of love

Thank you for your gifts

your walking here with us

for your protection

for your love poured out

thank you for your guiding

your hand upon our lives

We thank you for the year to come

for our hope for tomorrow

knowing you are with us

in our joys and our sorrows

we thank you for your presence

for your Spirit within

in our hopes, our struggles

in the time here on earth

thank you for your guiding

for your love poured out

thank you for your blessings

your hand upon our lives
