Koach la'asot ma'asim tovim, koach lehitpalel

Aba ahuv veRachman, ana mimcha al tirchak mimeni le'olam.
Ein Od Milvado ve'efes zulato.
Translation
I thank You, Creator, King of Kings,
Master of the Universe, for the countless times
You have helped me, supported me, saved
me, brought me joy, healed me, protected
me, and inspired me.
THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS BEING WITH ME!
Thank You for giving me the strength
to fulfill Your mitzvot, to do good
deeds, and to pray.
I thank You for the help You
gave me even when I didn't realize
I should have said thank You.
Thank You for the great kindness that You
grant me at every single moment.
Thank You for every breath I take.
I thank You, King of Kings, even for
what I do not have.
THANK YOU FOR THE TIMES
WHEN IT IS HARD FOR ME!
Thank You that
sometimes I am sad, for it is for my good,
even though I don't always understand that it is for my
own good...
Deep in my soul I know that everything
that comes from You is the very best for
me, and is sent especially for me with
absolute precision, and only You, King
of all Kings, are capable of ruling this way.
I THANK YOU FOR THE HARDSHIPS that
You send me, for only after
experiencing hardship can I appreciate
the good; only one who has been in darkness
can fully appreciate the light.
THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL LIFE
YOU HAVE GIVEN ME!
I thank You even for the very
smallest and most insignificant thing I
have, because You gave me all of it and no one
else did.
THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS
HEARING MY PRAYERS!
Creator of the Universe, from the depths of my heart I ask:
forgive me if there were times when I did not
appreciate what You gave me, and instead of
giving thanks I only complained.
I AM DUST AND ASHES OF THE EARTH, AND YOU ARE THE WHOLE WORLD!
PLEASE, NEVER DISTANCE YOURSELF FROM ME!
