Lord Jesus Christ, my heart
reaches out in gratitude.
You have raised me up
from the darkness.
You have taken me from night
into the light of day.
Lord Jesus, even in my stubborn
pride, and lazy ways;
You continued to find me.
Gracious God, I thank You
from the depths of my heart
for Your goodness continues
reaching out in love.
Each day, my gratitude soars
for the life of blessing that
You shower upon each of us.
Amen.
- Columban Fr. Tom Glennon
