[Intro] [fingerpicked acoustic guitar, soft string pad] I'm overwhelmed by gratitude My heart now overflows My God has been so good to me This thankfulness just grows! For You have been my Father, My teacher and my Friend A precious Treasure in my heart A Gift that never ends [chorus] My Gratitude is growing Nurtured from above. And I am oh, so thankful For God’s unfailing love I know how long You've waited For me to understand The fullness of Your love for me The patience in Your plan! From tiny sprout to seedling You've watched with great delight You've watered me with kindness Embraced me with Sunlight How wonderful to be with You, To never be alone To be surprised by gratitude With joy I've never known! [chorus] My Gratitude is growing Nurtured from above. And I am oh, so thankful For God’s unfailing love Your mercy nourishes the soil Once poisoned by my sin I can't believe that I'm alive: Your Spirit lives within! Oh, such delight to grow to know This God who lives in me! What is this great inheritance That makes me feel so free? Together we sing a Delightful, joyful song! Words woven through my lifetime A melody life-long I'm grateful I can hear the song And join You in it now Dancing as I'm growing Your fruit on my small bough! As I grow much stronger, I ask that I may share Your wholesome fruit with others This is my fervent prayer! How wonderful to be with You To never be alone To be surprised by gratitude With joy I've never known! [chorus] My Gratitude is growing Nurtured from above. And I am oh, so thankful For God’s unfailing love [outgo] And I am oh, so thankful For God’s unfailing love
