I don't know about the future,
I don't understand some things about the past.
I don't why some things happen,
I don't why some things end and others last.
I don't know of the rhymes and reasons,
I don't understand the words some people pray.
When I see the hand of mercy Lord,
protect me the dangers in my way.

I know how to say to say thank you
I know a blessing when I see one
I'm a recipient of grace
through the hours and the days
I know how to say thank you.

There are times today when angels,
stood around me and I couldn't even see.
There were times when I was hurting,
and then you stepped in and took the pain from me.
There were moments when you stopped me Lord,
so I could I smell the roses by the road.
Though I not the wisest person,
there are some things that beyond a doubt I know.

I know how to say to say thank you,
I know a blessing when I see one,
I'm a recipient of grace through the hours and the days,
I know how to say thank you.

I know how to say to say thank you,
I know a blessing when I see one,
I'm a recipient of grace through the hours and the days,
I just want to say thank you.
Thank you.
Oh Lord, I thank you.
Thank you, Lord.

I know how to say thank you.
