Verse 1:
If you can hear my voice now God,
Then won't you take this song to be a gift of love
I hope you hear me say
Chorus 1:
Thank-you for the sun
And thank-you for the stars
For all that you have done
And for all the things you are
May you know I have a grateful heart
Verse 2:
And if one life is all I've got
Then now I tell you God
I'm grateful and in awe of the world around me
Chorus 2:
Thank-you for the sun
And thank-you for the moon
For all that I've become
And for all that I've been through
May you know this grateful heart's for you
Bridge:
You found me in the night
When my life was filled with pain
And you reached me with your light
And your angels kept me safe
Now I find you in the skies
And within the falling rain
You are hidden in all life
And in every breath I take
And now that I have seen
I will never be the same
And you will have a grateful heart in me
Verse 3:
And if I should stumble once again;
Fall in darkness without end
On your grace I will depend
And when I heal I'll say
Chorus 3:
Thank-you for the hurt
Thank-you for my pain
And thank-you for this life
And how it's opened me in ways
That made me see a grateful heart in me
Oh now I see a grateful heart in me
