English term or phrase: raise
"Unto thee our thanks we'll raise."

It's the end of a long day, my brain isn't with it anymore. Would this simply be "dando gracias," or does the "raising" here imply "elevando"? Thanks, this will be my last today!

dar gracias, daremos gracias


Explanation:
I believe it is the same as raise. Raising is giving thanks. I wouldn't use elevar.

Te agradecemos, oh Señor


Explanation:
You forgot to say if this forms part of a hymn, and therefore requires a certain metric. If so (7 syllables):
"Te damos gracias, Señor"
If it is not a hymn
Elevamos nuestra gratitud a Tí
