BY YOUR GRACE

Lord grant me the knowledge 
To know that your favouring me is merely a privilege 
That neither do I deserve it 
Nor is it my rightful benefit 

Help me to always keep in mind
That I'm neither the best in the land
Nor am I the worst you could see
For you to had blessed me

But out of love
My problems you decided to solve
And kept me alive
To sing your praise everyday of my life

Let my heart be opened
And my sight never shortened
That I may see and know that people better
With wonderful character
People older
Or younger
Richer
Or poorer
And with better health
Had left the face of this earth

But by your grace
I'm still on this race

This I ask of you ancient of days
That I may praise you always
