This life, so precious
This life, so fragile
Father, for You I'm so gracious
For creating me in the image of your child
Thank you for this beautiful heart
Which earnestly beats for You
As my flesh desires this worldly love
My soul constantly longs for You
Because out of all of the love in the world
I have discovered Your love as truth.
Thank you for the air that I breathe
There's nothing like the fresh breeze upon my face
Although we pollute and spoil this gift
You forgivingly extend to us grace
Knowing this will never be my home
I'm so thankful for the experiences of this temporary place.
Thank you for the blood
Which so richly paid for my ridiculous sin
Thank Jesus it runs through my veins
It freely flows now, just like it did then
My Savior's suffering breaks my heart's content
But I celebrate in the joy of knowing my faults are now forgiven.
So Im thankful that I have experienced my flesh
It's wretched acts have awakened You inside of me
The sin of my spirit, mind and body may spread wide
Yet I know that You are forever with me
Being bound forever with You is the greatest treat
And from You I will never flee.
Thank you, Father, that You saved me
From total disgrace and damnation
To confess that you are my eternal Savior
Through your son, Jesus, who came to save the nations
You are my every word, thought, tear and emotion
And I can't wait to be with You for eternity, from the resurrection.
