For Creating Me

How can I say thank you,

For all You’ve done for me?

You’ve given me breath,

And ordained my destiny.

I could have been born

In some far war torn land,

Suffering with disease;

Without legs or a hand.

But You’ve granted me freedom,

And the very faith to believe.

You’ve graced me with courage,

And my sorrows You relieve.

The comfort of a home,

You’ve gifted to me.

The love for my children,

Have been Your degree.

My wisdom, You’ve enlightened,

To choose right or wrong.

Even in my despair,

You’ve blessed me with a song.

All that I am

Or ever will be,

Is imparted to You,

For creating me.
