Eliza Gilkyson Prayer 2000
Thank you for the sun
Thank you for the full moon
Thank you for my true love's face
And our lives in love consumed
Thank you for the stars
A home along the river
Thank you for the ancient groves
And the fishes brown and silver
Ponies running wild
Grass enough for grazing
Water flowing clean and pure
All the beauty that saves me
Thank you for the dawn
Ocean's rise and falling
Children born to carry on
And the end that's always calling
Thank you for the songs
Thanks for all my good luck
All the things that don't go wrong
And hopes that don't give up
Thank you for the tears
Loved ones who forgave me
Thank you for the darkest years
All the sorrow that made me
And the beauty that saved me
