there s a thousand little things a thousand little things i m hearing i love you in a thousand little things the stillness of the morning no one else awake leaves of fire are falling whispering autumn s on the way i steal some time and say a prayer for all that lies in store my life is overflowing every dawn i m thankful for a thousand little things a thousand little things moments of your mercy that every new day brings sky goes from black to blue and i m silenced by the view i m hearing i love you in a thousand little things a dozen purple flowers i brought home yesterday the music in the laughter of children as they play friends who really love me and walk with me through this life the one i love says i d choose you again to be my wife a thousand little things a thousand little things the moments of your mercy that every new day brings a quiet porch a sunset view a lazy rainy afternoon a day with nothing much to do i m filled with gratitude for a thousand little things a thousand little things i m hearing i love you in a thousand little things there s a thousand little things there s a thousand little things saying he loves you
