Thank you Lord for being who you are,
your heavens shine brighter than a star
the love that you have given us
was paid, by your son on the cross.

when we are sad, you are there
there is no other who can care,
like you dear lord, we want to live
to love, to care and to forgive.

you brought us through that trying hour
you kept us safe, with your love and power
you kept us calm when we were scared,
it is through your mercy, that we’re not dead.

we prayed so hard, that horrible night
that you would keep us all alright.
your love has never felt so strong
dear lord you kept us from all harm.

we praise you Lord for the gift of life
we praise you for keeping us alive,
we praise you that we have faith in you,
to know our troubles, are handed over to you

Lord help us to forgive them,
to pray for them too
as their next victim might not be so blessed
and wont get a chance to say thank you too.
