Sing this in order from top to bottom unless otherwise noted.

CHORUS A [acapella]:

I have a thankful heart
that you have given me
and it can only come from you


VERSE 1:

Em          C        G      D              Em
There is no way to begin to tell you how I feel

             C          G         D                Em
there are no words to express how you've become so real

             C        Em            C
Jesus you've given me...  so much I can't repay

Em        A
I have no offering...


CHORUS B:

             C        G                   C     D
But I have a thankful heart that you have given me

           Em   D/F#      C
and it can only come from you


VERSE 2:

Em          C        G      D              Em
There is no way to begin to tell you how I feel

                C          G       D           Em
there's nothing more I can say and no way to repay

             C     Em                C
Your warming touch...  that melts my heart of stone

Em             C    Em             A
your steadfast love...  I'll never be alone


CHORUS C:

         C        G                   C     D
I have a thankful heart that you have given me

           Em   D/F#      C
and it can only come from you


CHORUS D:

C                     G                  C   D
I have a thankful heart words don't come easily

         Em           D/F#            C
but I am sure you can see my thankful heart


BRIDGE:

D/F#    E    Am     G/B
Help me be a man of God

  D/F#      E     Am       G/B
a man who's after Your own heart

D/F#    E       Am   G/B
Help me show my gratitude

    D/F#    E    Am       G/B
and keep me in a thankful heart


[repeat CHORUS D and end]
