Thank you God My Father as I kneel and pray, I thank you for another day, My home that keeps me safe and warm, And shelter me from every storm Thank you for the food I eat, the clothes I wear, shoes for my feet. My children are so far away, but thank you for their call today Keep them safely through the night And guide their feet in path of right I also thank you for my bed a place to rest my weary head And strength to fill my days with help to others on their ways Now as I close, God, my heart sends A special thank you for my friends. Amen, Juanita
