We praise you for your blessings Maker of the earth
For every good and precious gift the gift of a new birth
We praise you for the things we lost that brought us to our knees
Knowing in our weakness that's the safest place to be
We praise you in our sickness healer of our souls
For only in our brokeness can we ever be made whole
We praise you that our desperate hearts Reveal our deepest needs
Knowing in our weakness That's the safest place to be
We praise you for your people Gathered on the way
We praise that you scatter us So lost souls hear your name
We praise you for the faith that grows to life from dying seeds
Knowing in our weakness that's the safest place to be
