I want to take this moment to thank everyone who supported the American mission work in Asia a century ago. This mission was not just about outreach; it was a pivotal reason for my salvation and my path to where I am today.
When I first arrived in the United States two decades ago, I was overwhelmed. However, the countless embraces and the warmth shown to me by those I met turned my uncertainty into a feeling of belonging. It’s truly humbling to remember how all the love you poured into my life is a significant reason I am still here today, ready to share my story and express my gratitude.
To honor all the support I received during my early days, I have written a song dedicated to you all. This song is not only an expression of my thankfulness but also a tribute to the kindness and faith that transcends time and borders. I hope it resonates with you, just as your love has resonated with me.

[verse]
Thank you America so true
Your mission shines in skies so blue
Your kindness flows like morning dew
I found my grace it came from you
[verse]
When you touched the moon so bright
I stood below in silver light
When you sailed through starry night
My heart took flight in pure delight
[pre-chorus]
Now I stand so near
Ready to make things clear
Return the flame so dear
Light the way without fear
America your light shines here
[chorus]
I never knew God without your light
Thank you America
Thank you America
[verse]
Through the storms you stand so strong
In your shadow I belong
Though I’m small I’ll sing this song
With you is where my heart is drawn
[pre-chorus]
Now I stand so near
Ready to make things clear
Return the flame so dear
Light the way without fear
America your light shines here
[chorus]
I never knew God without your light
Thank you America
Thank you America
[verse]
Your streets held dreams so sweet
We’ll rebuild them strong and neat
With every prayer and every beat
Our love will make the world complete
[pre-chorus]
Now I stand so near
Ready to make things clear
Return the flame so dear
Light the way without fear
America your light shines here
[chorus]
I never knew God without your light
Thank you America
Thank you America
