Faith, Hope and Love
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Thank you, LORD, for planting me
Where I’ll take root and thrive
For getting rid of all the things
That would eat me alive
Thank you for the love you’ve shown
By giving us your Son
And leaving us your Spirit
Till the work on earth is done
You could have left us here to die
Afraid and all alone
We thank you for the grace it takes
To show us our Way home
