Sometimes we forget all the blessings we do have.
We get so involved in our own frustrations and self-pity
that the good things of life get lost.

Thank You, Lord
Sue Haas - SGH34

God, You are so very good to me.
To love me and yet, let me be free.
To bless me with all the good things,
Good friends, good days and songs to sing.

Thank you Lord for morning sun
and all the happy times of fun.
Thank you for the laughter of a child
and flowers growing in the wild.
Thank you for the hills and streams.
Thank you for my pleasant dreams.
Thank you for the friends you give
and also for the life I live.
Thank you for the evening rain
to wash away my daily pain.
Thank you Lord for suffering, so
You can touch me I can grow.
Thank you for the sweet songbird.
And thank you Lord for Your Word.

The world is full of Your gentle care
of things to do and things to share.
Of beautiful things to say in a special way,
that become loving memories another day.

How can I thank you for all You have given,
Your very own Son who for me has risen.
So that I may forever live in joy and peace.
And from the chains of sin be ever released.

So thank you Lord for all Yours gifts from above.
But most of all, thank you for LOVE.
