Lyrics
Before I receive, I’ll give thanks
Before the day breaks, I’ll give thanks
In every unknown I will trust you
Before I receive, I’ll give thanks
For every prayer yet unanswered
For every task unresolved
For every dream that’s still waiting
Before I receive, I’ll give thanks
You were before the beginning
You care for the smallest things
Lord I will daily surrender
All that each moment brings
I’m bringing the strains of tomorrow
I’m holding the stress of today
I’m singing my joy and my sorrow
Before I receive, I’ll give thanks
You were before the beginning
You care for the smallest things
Lord I will daily surrender
All that each moment brings
You were before the beginning
You care for the smallest things
Lord I will daily surrender
All that each moment brings
The One who goes before is The One who goes behind
The One whose love surrounds is The One who walks beside
The One who goes before is The One who goes behind
the One whose love surrounds is The One who walks beside
I’ll give thanks
I’ll give thanks
I’ll give thanks
I’ll give thanks
So teach me to live in this tension
The mission within the mundane
Thank you for all you have given
For all I’ve received, I give thanks
For all I’ve received, I give thanks
