I Give Thanks For You Stuart Burrows 1980

Music by Peter Young
Lyrics by Gerard Linton

Lyrics:
Every time I kneel and pray, I give thanks for you
Every hour and every day I give thanks for you.
All the simple joys of life tranquil deep content.
It was you, and you alone, who thought me what they meant.

Every time I think of home I give thanks for you.
Picture someone in the gloaming, someone sweet and true.
Just the mention of your name brings you to my side.
Life would never be the same without your love to guide me.

Near to me you’re far apart all life’s journey through.
Now and ever dearest heart I give thanks for you!
