Thank You For The Roses
by The Primitive Quartet

Album: Through the Years, Vol. 6

For all the pretty sunsets
And each peaceful stream;
For every little songbird;
You send my way to sing
And in my barren desert
Where nothing else grows
Even in the valley
You still give me a rose (x2)

( chorus )
Lord, Thank you for the roses
You place in my life;
For the old fashioned preacher
Who carried the light;
For peace and contentment
In a world so filled with strife
Lord, Thank you for the roses
You place in my life (x2)

For the freshness of the morning
And the cool of the day;
For the place in my memory,
When you washed my sins away;
And for your precious Holy Spirit
I feel down in my soul,
And that's worth more to me
Than every other rose (x2)

( chorus )
Lord, Thank you for the roses
You place in my life;
For the old fashioned preacher
Who carried the light;
For peace and contentment
In a world so filled with strife
Lord, Thank you for the roses
You place in my life (x2)

Lord, thank you for the roses...
