Oh Lord, You are so wonderful

Did I take the time to pray,

Or did I find myself wrapped up

In other things today?

Did I remember to thank You

For the moon and stars above,

And all You have created

But most of all... Your love?

Did I mention that I'm thankful

I can read Your words each day,

By opening up my Bible

And to Your words, try to obey?

Did I remember to thank You too

For this beautiful sunny day,

For the birds that sing so joyfully

In their melancholy way?

Have I asked for Your forgiveness

When I complain of things I should not?

For I know, Lord, in my heart

I must be grateful for all I’ve got.

Did I thank You for the love

You have placed within my heart,

And for the many friends I have?

For with me, they are a part.

 Finally, Lord, have I let You know

My life would be incomplete,

If I didn't know You, as my Savior...

The one someday I'll meet?
