Thank you, Lord, for this wonderful day
Since each new day is a special gift,
For the sky so blue, and also when gray,
And sunshine which gives the spirits a lift;
For flowers that bloom, kissed by the sun,
Valleys and hills, plains and trees,
The artistic beauty You spread on each one,
The joy of life in each day to seize;
For abundant blessings showered on earth,
Peace, joy and hope raining down from above,
For the exquisite miracle of new birth,
Your Son and Your Spirit, the gift of love;
For all good things and all You do,
Thankful praise and love flow back to You.
