Thanks Father

Thanks Father

Like a child that’s in need of a hug

Father I come to you today.

With open arms lifted up to you

Hold me in your care always.

Your love’s more than I deserve

I just don’t understand

How the God of the universe chose me

As His own, to hold me in His hand.

You given me all the things I need

Even more than I can say.

Uncountable blessings have overtaken me

Each and every day.

On the days when things are bleak

And I cry a million tears.

I hear you whisper out my name

And take away my fears.

You hold me close like a Father would

That child he’s so proud of.

Even though the things I do

Seems to spurn your precious love.

Help me to always see the good

In what others do.

Please let me be the light that shines

To lead them all to You.

Thank you Lord for your loving care

For the provisions that you give.

The love, the laughter and the joy

The beautiful life I live.

Father please accept my thanks today

For your mercy and your grace.

Please know I love you more and more each day

And I can’t wait to see your face.

I wanted to add this scripture; "And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.  Deuteronomy 28:1-2

I pray all these blessings on everyone here on OWG and all of our beautiful friends who visit with us. I pray for you all to have a blessed New Year!
