Thank you Lord, for shining on my soul,
I praise your Holy name, you make me whole;
there's nothing that I lack when you're with me,
even if  my friends, they cannot see.

Your on the inside... outside I look the same,
you've forgiven all my faults and shame;
I am like putty in your sculpting hand,
never have I felt, happiness so grand.

You took me from the bottom of my being,
opened up my ears, my eyes, for seeing;
took all the dirt and washed it all away,
so in your new-found favor, I could stay.

You picked me up, when I was all but down,
rescued me from where I nearly drowned;
gave me the strength to make it past my sin,
never gave much thought to where I'd been.

Thank you Lord, for making me a new creation,
filling me with joy and sweet anticipation;
I once was lost, and I almost lost my mind,
but in your Word, it's always Love I find.
