Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You saw my anger
You heard my pain
Pulled out a little chair by yours
Said
"Sit and say their name"
You held the silence
Till I could breathe
You showed me how to bless the hurt
And finally let it leave
[Chorus]
So I give thanks for you today
For the way you showed me a softer way
You taught compassion like a song
Beat in my chest
Keeping me strong
I give thanks for all you’ve done
You walked in truth
You made me run
Toward forgiveness
Toward real love
Thanks for being what you spoke of (yeah)
[Verse 2]
You never shouted
You just stood firm
Turned every hard word into a chance
For my heart to learn
You faced the rumor
You faced the lie
Told me
"Clean eyes
Clean hands
That’s how we rise"
[Chorus]
So I give thanks for you today
For the way you showed me a straighter way
You taught compassion like a song
Beat in my chest
Keeping me strong
I give thanks for all you’ve done
You walked in truth
You made me run
Toward forgiveness
Toward real love
Thanks for being what you spoke of (oh, I’m thankful)
[Bridge]
You said
"Love is work
Love is choice
Love is lifting up the smallest voice"
Now when my heart wants to turn away
I hear your words
And I stay
[Chorus]
So I give thanks for you today
For the way you brightened my every day
You taught compassion like a song
Beat in my chest
Keeping me strong
I give thanks for all you’ve done
You walked in truth
You made me run
Toward forgiveness
Toward real love
Thanks for being what you spoke of
Thanks for being my teacher of love (yeah, my teacher of love)
