神の家族って　　　　　すばらしいよね
神様の愛を　　　　　　伝えてるんだよ
苦しい時でも　　　　　喜びの笑顔を
くれたfamilyのは　　　父なる神に感謝

(Hope)
神の希望って　　　　　力強いよね
背負った十字架を　　　救い主イエスよ
嵐の時でも　　　　　　上もない喜びと
くれた喜びさあ　　　　父なる神に感謝

(Faith)
神の恵みって　　　　　すばらしいよね
我々の罪を　　　　　　取り除いたのよ
きびしい時でも　　　　主に信頼をおくと
くれた信仰のは　　　　父なる神に感謝

Give thanks
   For the LORD is good
Give thanks
   His love endures forever
I give You thanks
   For your grace and truth
I give You thanks
   Your faithfulness to all generations

主に感謝
   いつくしみ深い、主は
主に感謝
   永遠に、その恵みは
主に感謝
   世々に、その真実は
主に感謝
   賛美されるべき方、主は

He's taken away our sins!
