| Things We Take For Granted |
|
Lord, you know I take for granted My hearing and my sight. And, at times, I forget to thank you; When I say my prayers, at night. I feel blessed that I'm not speechless, Lord, So I can spread your precious word And, if I fail to be your messenger, Your loving truths may not be heard. So many things we take for granted, Lord, And we fail to realize Until we meet someone, on life's highway, Whose deaf and dumb, or have no eyes. These feet I take for granted, Lord, (That I can't afford to lose) Have helped me walk that extra mile In someone else's shoes. So, Lord, I want to thank you, now, For blessing me so much With these five senses you've given me: Sight, taste, smell, hear, and touch. |
