THANK YOU DEAR LORD
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
THANK YOU DEAR LORD
 
 
 
 
Sometimes I feel especially blest,
I've joy inside and happiness.
That's when I want to thank God more,
But the words I need I'm searching for.

How can one thank the Christ who died,
And for mankind was crucified?
Though I find rhymes within my words,
How paltry are my chosen verbs.

I desire more than trifling speech,
I need other means with which to reach.
To use unspoken words from in,
My only way of reaching Him.

My heart says what I cannot voice,
There are no syllables of choice.
My heart communicates direct,
In silence He and I connect.

He hears exactly what I say,
Though not a sound is heard this day.
My heart shouts out in quietude,
And God does hear my gratitude.
