I know I may not say it much, but I still want you to know

Just how much you mean to me, and how thankful I am

For everything you have thrown my way – the good, the bad, and everything in between

For never having left my side, even when my faith wore thin

There have been times, I can’t deny

When I have questioned your motives, and your offerings

But for all those times of doubt, you’ve always managed to prove me wrong

Reassuring me of all your good intentions

Gratitude that I may not always choose to express openly

I only wish you would know that it exists deep within me always

For you are but my maker, and for me, you will do no harm

Dear God, as yet another year goes by, and we prepare ourselves to face the next

I thank you for all lessons and experiences I have had so far

And I shall always believe in you, for everything you are to me
