Thank You (get It Right) Lyrics

watching you come down the stairs tonight

our daughter in your arms

hits me like a freight train

it startles me into a song

i've been given more than i deserve

more than i had asked

it took some time to realize

and i'm on my knees at last



Chorus

Thank you, thank you

for giving me this life

thank you, thank you

i want to get it right



it doens't always go so smoothly

or sometimes even good

it gets broken like the rest of me

and i've rarely understood

but it's shelter from the storm

salvation from the cold

and it's suddenly lit up for me

and i'm ablt to behold



Chorus



a joining of colored threads

wove into a whole

and this fabric you created

is the finest thing i know



you are so good to me always

but right now i'm taking note

cause looking up the stairs tonight

i feel a burning hope

i might trued things on my own

but i could not have gone far

cause what you give me through this family

is the greatest gift of all



thank you, thank you

for finding me through them

thank you, thank you

i am thankful to the end
