THANK GOD FOR LIFE


Thank you lord
For the womb that carried me
For the breasts that fed me
For the hands that cared for me

Thank you lord
For my infant days
Despite all the ailments and diseases
I came to no harms
Despite all the falls, injuries and infections
I never lost my life

Thanks you lord
For my boyhood
For in all my endeavors, you were with me
For the hands that scolded me
For if the rod had been spared
What would I have become of me?

Thank you lord
For how you’ve gradually made a man out of me
For the good and bad times in my life
For the many things which your love taught me
And his still teaching me
