Give me a Grateful Heart

Give me a grateful heart Lord

Open my eyes to see

The wondrous things that you have done

For the world and for me


The azure blue sky

The wind in the trees

The good green earth

And the boundless seas


The good weather on a bad day

The message from a friend

A smile from a stranger

When you fall, a helping hand


Oh Lord, give me ears to hear

To hear deeds of your love

To hear and to know

Who you are above


The music of the birds

The rippling of a stream

The roar of a wave

The whisper of a dream


The friendly hellos

The longing goodbyes

Words of encouragement

That bring tears to the eye


Oh Father give me the heart

To feel and truly know

The one to whom

I owe my soul


The one who built the mountains

Who studded the night sky

Who planted the forests

And taught birds to fly


The one who first laughed

The one who the desperate saves

The one who for one and for all

Died and his life gave


Oh give me the heart Lord

So I can finally see

Who you are

And who you’ll always be
