Ooh, ooh…
Broken dreams marvel at the mystery
Of grace received
A second chance
A crippled heart
Cradled in my Father’s arms
A brand new start to everything
I don’t what to say
But what I can say is thank you
I don’t have much to give
But all I have I will waste on you
There’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my face upon your feet
Ooh, ooh…
Grateful tears wipe away the shameful years
Freedom’s song is on my lips
A wrench like me delivered from my poverty
Rescue me, my broken heart
I don’t what to say
But what I can say is thank you
I don’t have much to give
But all I have I will waste on you
There’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my face upon your feet
All my tears and all my fragrance
Poured upon the feet of Jesus
All my tears and all my fragrance
Poured upon the feet of Jesus
All my tears and all my fragrance
Poured upon the feet of Jesus
All my tears and all my fragrance
Poured upon the feet of Jesus
I don’t what to say
But what I can say is thank you
I don’t have much to give
But all I have I will waste on you
There’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my face upon your feet
There’s no place I’d rather be
Than with my face upon your feet
Ooh… upon your feet
Reflecting on Grace and Gratitude
“Thank You” by Brandon Lake is a moving expression of humility and gratitude. The lyrics capture a profound sense of awe at receiving grace in the face of brokenness and past mistakes. Lake uses imagery of broken dreams, heartfelt tears, and a renewed spirit to communicate the overwhelming thankfulness that arises from being given a second chance. The song’s refrain, acknowledging the singer’s inability to fully articulate gratitude, beautifully illustrates the depth of emotion that words often fail to express. The repeated desire to be at Jesus’ feet symbolizes humility, surrender, and devotion, turning even the simplest offering into an act of worship.
