[Verse 1] What have You done for me? Merely given me a life worth living, Shown me love to which none can compare, A hope of a future, amazing and exciting. You've given me this, for free. [Chorus 1] Should I be grateful? Should I show it? Should I fervently praise You, And proclaim Your name to the ends of the earth? [Verse 2] After all, you only sent Your son To die in sheer agony, To be cut off from Your love, To be crushed by the weight of my sin, So that I might know You, and live. [Chorus 2] You'd think I'd be grateful You'd think I'd want to show it You'd think I'd fervently praise You, And proclaim Your name to the ends of the earth. [Verse 3] What acts of gratitude would be worthy To give thanks for what you have done? Nothing, really, but I could make a start, Such as giving You all that I have and all that I am, And living Your will in all that I do. [Chorus 3] Father, I am grateful, And I want to show it. I shall fervently praise You, And proclaim your name to the ends of the earth. [Verse 4] If giving You my life and living Your will Were the least that I could do, You'd think that I'd manage that. But no, I fail, I let You down. Sometimes I think I'm more of a hindrance than a help to Your kingdom. [Chorus 4] Lord, I am grateful; Help me to show it. Teach me to fervently praise You, And proclaim Your name to the ends of the earth. [Verse 5] Thank You, Father, for Your grace, And for Your infinitely patient love. Thank You that whenever I fall, You catch me and comfort me with Your tender presence, And You're always ready to forgive.
