Thank you for You

You are the relief in my stress,
You are home when I’ve been lost,
You the soother after pain,
You paid the price when my soul was at cost.

You send me dreams when I have none,
You bring the words when I can’t talk,
When life looks dull, You shine the sun,
You make me fly when I can’t walk.

You are the answer to problems I face,
You are the peace when my thoughts are loud,
If I feel shut in, then You are my space,
You are my friend in an angry crowd.

When I am gasping, then You are my breath,
You are the breeze when the heat makes me faint,
Yes, You are the life, so with You no death,
When I think of love, You’re the picture I paint.

You are the Quencher, Forgiver and Saviour,
I make the fire, the sin and the need,
You the life Giver and Finder of Favour,
Me the soul owner of selfish and greed.

You gave me life, so I live it for You,
Since You are the Caller, I’m ready to go,
Oh, freshen me daily and keep me anew,
Keep saying YES when my heart tells me NO.

For You have made sense in a world confused,
You are the truth in a lifetime of lies,
Remind us of You when we’re torn and abused,
Thank You for You Lord, for You are the prize!
