Thanks, God, For Big Shoulders

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
They lead and they guide.
They keep me from straying
When my path is too wide.

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
Whenever I err,
They patiently listen
And with prayers show they care.

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
They always understand.
Whether in joy or in sorrow
It's all in God's hands.

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
When I don't know where
God's calling will lead me,
I know they'll be there.

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
They carry me each day.
Whether succeeding or failing
They don't turn me away.

Thanks, God, for big shoulders,
Friends, family, and wife,
And those special ones who sustain me,
Each day of my life.

Thanks, God, for those brothers
    and sisters
Who never, ever leave.
They show me big shoulders
Almost too strong to believe.

Thanks, God, for Your big shoulders,
From them stretched Your arms
Which bled and redeemed me,
And keep me from harm.

With big shoulders like these
And with the strength that they share
I know that in all things
Big shoulders will always be there.
