[Intro]
[Piano and organ]
[Verse 1]
I woke to bread cooling by the window
And a quiet room where mercy stayed
Every little kindness I remember
Bears the mark of love You gave
[Pre-Chorus]
When my hands were empty
You were still enough
When my road was broken
You kept calling me up
[Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus, for the morning
Thank You, Jesus, for my breath
For the friend who came by Sunday
For the strength that met my mess
I got a grateful heart, a grateful heart
And I’m laying it before Your feet
Thank You, Jesus, for Your kindness
That keeps making me complete
[Verse 2]
There was coffee shared at Auntie’s table
A little laughter, worn and sweet
You turned my worry into witness
Put a steady rhythm in my feet
[Pre-Chorus]
When I lost direction
You became my guide
When I could not praise You
You stayed by my side
[Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus, for the morning
Thank You, Jesus, for my breath
For the friend who came by Sunday
For the strength that met my mess
I got a grateful heart, a grateful heart
And I’m laying it before Your feet
Thank You, Jesus, for Your kindness
That keeps making me complete
[Bridge]
Choir: We remember
Lead: Every door You opened
Choir: We remember
Lead: Every tear You held
Choir: We remember
Lead: Love that would not leave us
All: And the grace that knows us well
[Final Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus, for the morning
Thank You, Jesus, for my breath
For the hands that pulled me upward
When I had no strength left
I got a grateful heart, a grateful heart
And I’m laying it before Your feet
Thank You, Jesus, for Your kindness
You are all I’ll ever need
[Outro]
Thank You, Jesus
For this life, for this day
Thank You, Jesus
Keep my grateful heart this way
