I will give thanks unto the Lord,
Knowing I will not be ignored;
I have been amazingly made,
Miraculously bought and paid.
My soul is completely aware,
Of all the tender loving care;
That has gone into making me,
Knowing He is able to see.
My bones and organs do not hide,
From His sight because I abide;
Within Him through His Holy Word,
And all that I have read and heard.
For in secret my existence came,
While my birth I did proclaim;
Coming out of my mother's womb,
Alive till I rest in the tomb.
His eyes saw me inside of her,
As I kicked and causing a stir;
And every day since my birth,
The Book of Life shows my true worth.
How precious with every thought,
That is concerning me He sought;
How vast in numbers as they are,
Just like counting every star.
When I wake up He is with me,
Through the night and watching to see;
Naught evil or wicked came near,
So I would have nothing to fear.
Should I not hate those who hate Him?
Those that make life so bleak and grim;
For I hate them with all my heart,
Wishing from this life they depart.
But God has seen and knows my mind,
And says to love them and be kind;
Just avoid them and stay away,
For they cause sin and make you stray.
