Thank You

By: Maher Zain
I was so far from you
Yet to me you were always so close
I wandered lost in the dark
I closed my eyes toward the signs
You put in my way
I walked everyday
Further and further away from you
Ooooo Allah, you brought me home
I thank You with every breath I take.

Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah

All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah
Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah
All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah.

I never thought about
All the things you have given to me
I never thanked you once
I was too proud to see the truth
And prostrate to you
Until I took the first step
And that’s when you opened the doors for me
Now Allah, I realized what I was missing
By being far from you.

Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah
All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah
Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah
All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah.

Allah, I wanna thank You
I wanna thank you for all the things that you’ve done
You’ve done for me through all my years I’ve been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
And did you give me hope

O Allah, I wanna thank you
I wanna thank You for all the things that you’ve done
You’ve done for me through all my years I’ve been lost
You guided me from all the ways that were wrong
I wanna thank You for bringing me home

Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah
All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah
Alhamdulillah, Elhamdulillah
All praises to Allah, All praises to Allah.

Just Rely on Him

Sometimes, we need to live in loneliness; because not all of our problems need to be shared to others. When there is just star accompanying us, actually it is the best situation for us to muse what we’ve done in past days. Regret, grateful, love, friendship will appear in our mind. Let our tears or smiles expand in our face. Don’t let it is forced in hiding our feeling; because it just tortures us. In this situation, feeling that the God is really close to us will comes. This is a good occasion to bestow our feeling through words. Trying to release our problems through tears or even smiles is not a bad choice while we are bestowing them. Don’t judge that God is unfair with the problems given to us, because problems are just steps to make us more struggle in facing life. Just think positively friends. I hope this way can raise our belief to the God and also makes us always keep smile ;).
