Songwriter

Tomorrow I leave for camp. I'm sooo excited! This will be like the best week of the summer.

Anyways, I wanted to run something by you. I while ago I wrote this song. But I can't come up with the right tune or chords. I've been working on it for months and nothing seems to click!
I wanted to give you the lyrics and see what you all thought. If you guys have any suggestions please tell me.

Here goes! I don't normally show anyone my work but this one I really like.

Greatest Sacrifice:
Verse 1:
As I wait here for any sign of you
I realise just how great you are
The wonder of you life,
The greatness of your sacrifice,
You unending love and I thank you.
Chorus:
I thank you for your love, your life, your great sacrifice.
The unselfishness of your son,
and the wonder of your patience.
Thank you Lord! 2x
Verse 2:
Listening for your still small voice,
I begin to understand you
To feel the depth of your peace,
and the wholeness of our hope in you and I thank you.
Chorus repeat
Bridge:
You loved, you lived, you died.
You were our holy lamb
Holy are you God!
Chorus
End with bridge

Well, there it is.
I hope that you all like it and that someone can help me with the chords. I'm not that good with matching the words with a tune.
Thanks!

-Your avid songwriter
