What Do We Thank God For By Brenda Drake

What Do we Thank God For?

What do we thank God for on this day set aside?
I thank Him that I am alive.
He is Life and the Way,
How could I not thank Him on this day?
I have a family and close friends,
I am counted as His and He is my greatest friend within.
We give thanks when a roof is over our head when the day is done,
When there is food on the table enough for everyone,
That we live in a Country still free to express
Our love for God and can His provisions confess.
Our arms raise in praise, with feet willing to follow after God’s Son,
When in thanks our eyes and ears are open to see and hear all He has done.
When we know Jesus and are able to comprehend His Word
We freely are able to express all we’ve heard.
We have a bright shining future promised for us to see.
We soon reside with a love that endures through eternity
I will give thanks to my Lord on this special day;
But I must remember on every day to sing His praise.
What have I to thank God for?
I could add to a forever list much, much more!
