THANK YOU, LORD
Words and Music: Fr. Gene Pastidio, OFM
Sitting all alone and looking far beyond
The windows of my soul
Slowly open in my mind
And then I saw the moments
And heard the counts of time,
The many joys and sorrows
Of all the years behind.
One by one I saw them
The pictures in my mind
And once more did I follow
The path that I have been
There were thorns and roses
Scattered on the ground
In all the years I'm living
The Lord has been so kind.
Thank you, Lord, for the mem'ries
Thank you, Lord, for the life
Thank you, Lord, for the meaning
Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord.
There were times I wondered
What road shall I take.
Times when I was lost
Knowing not what turn to make
But thank you for the voices
That told me where to go.
Thank you for the prayers
That helped me what to do.
There were times I've fallen,
Beaten to the ground
When all my dreams have vanished
When all my hopes were down
Thank you for the many hands
That helped me up again
Thank you for the many hearts
That kept me strong since then.
