THANK YOU, FATHER
Autumn 1979, Bryn Mawr PA
Thank you, Father, for the sun that dances on my eyes
Warming a peaceful afternoon
Thank you, Father, for the colors in the Autumn sky
Swirling beneath a laughing moon
Thank you, Father, for the wood that made my sweet guitar
Turning my passion into song
Thank you, Father, for the magic-maker that you are
Carry my melody along
All I wish to say when on my knees I pray
All I want to do my Lord is follow you...
Thank you, Father, for the humble place I lay my head
Sleeping my fantasies away
Thank you, Father, for the bakers of my daily bread
Keeping me fed from day to day
I want my attitude to show ev'ryone how much gratitude we owe you
I can't believe you gave your only Son so all men might come to know you
All I wish to say when on my knees I pray
All I want to do my Lord is follow you...
Thank you, Father, for the merry folk I call my friends
Thanks for my dear family
Thank you, Father, for your awesome love that never ends
Reminding me how happily
We all can thankful be...
