For Yesterday
For yesterday, I thank You Lord.
There were years that seemed
just like a dream.
There were life-changing scenes.
But I've come to know
that You allowed me to go
through that maze,
those difficult days
(and You were there always)
so I would grow.
You kept me strong,
like a tree amidst the storms.
You had hopes for me
when the future I couldn't see.
When I despaired,
so misty was the view -
until I saw You,
looking down from heaven,
showing You care.
Nothing compares
with Your love.
You saw my heart
and picked me up.
I owe everything to You.
For all You've done for me.
for all my yesterdays,
I'm grateful.
Thank You, Lord.
