A song which says it all to 2008 and 2009...

I Believe There is More by Don Moen
You have been good to me
You have been good to me
You have been gracious
You have been faithful
Meeting my needs

Lord, it's so plain to see
You have been good to me
I have been given so much
I can't even begin to thank You

Chorus:
And still I believe there is more
I believe there is more I believe
So I open my hands to receive
All that Your love has in store
Lord, I believe

Everything I have done
All that I've said and sung
Lifting Your story giving You glory
That's just the beginning
Father, I know there is more
Power to heal and restore
Miracles wonders blessings unnumbered
Love never-ending

Bridge:
Exceeding abundantly
More than our minds can imagine
Love overflowing
You are bestowing
Day after day after day
