Thankful for the morning - 2

thankful for the morning
for the sound of their singing
for the smile of my wife
breathing I love you
over the din
waking, the morning
school soon to begin

thankful for breath
God’s gift of life
thankful for grace
for the cross, the grave
Christ here with us
the Spirit within

thankful for the words
which I can share
for plants, for animals
for birds of the air
thankful for life
the day to come
thankful for the cross
how Christ meets me there.
