1. Praising
Our joy-filled faces and wonder-filled places
remind us how blessed we are.
Lord, you are at work in our world.
Lord, you are at work in our lives.
2. Pleading
Lord, it's us again,
here with more of our problems.
Once again we're overwhelmed.
We're helpless without your help.
We're hopeless without our hope in you.
3. Challenging
Where are you Lord
in our world and in our lives,
so filled with greed and grief?
Save us, our Savior,
and be quick about it.
You may have all eternity,
but our time keeps slipping away.
4. Trusting
It's easy to praise you, Loving One
when all is going well.
But it takes all we've got
to trust you when all seems to go wrong.
5. Relating
We're so often absent from you,
but we long for a sense of your Presence, Lord.
We say "yes, yes, yes, yes"
to counter the many times we've said "no"
6. Thanking
Every day should be Thanksgiving Day,
but we're so stingy with our gratitude.
Never can we be grateful enough
for the many ways you bless us.
