I Know How To Say Thank You

I don't know about the future
I don't understand some things about the past
I don't why some things happen
I don't why some things end and others last
I don't know of the rhymes and reasons
I don't understand the words some people pray
But when I see the hand of mercy, Lord
Protect me the dangers in my way

I know how to say thank you
I know a blessing when I see one
I'm a recipient of grace
Through the hours and the days
I know how to say thank you

There were times today when angels
Stood around me and I couldn't even see
There were times when I was hurting
And then You stepped in and took the pain for me
There were moments when You stopped me, Lord
So, I could smell the roses by the road
And though I'm not the wisest person
There are some things that beyond a doubt I know

I know how to say thank you
I know a blessing when I see one
I'm a recipient of grace
Through the hours and the days
I know how to say thank you
I know a blessing when I see one
I'm a recipient of grace

Through the hours and the days
I just want to say thank you
Thank you
Oh Lord, I thank you
Thank you, Lord
Lord, I thank you
I know how to say thank you
