Give Thanks

As a Nation, and a people we set aside this day,
To give God our thanks and praise.
Families gather to prepare
A bountiful table share.
We give thanks for all God does in our life,
To cause us joy and inner delight.
With eyes to see and with a heart free,
Help us Lord to pray for and assist another in need.
Give us ears to hear the silent cry,
Of those who have a heart that sighs.
To our Nation send a revival sound,
That pulls from evil to higher ground.
As we celebrate the goodness bestowed,
And as realization of our many blessings unfold,
Allow our heart to sing clear,
A love song only You can hear.
I give thanks for Your love so sure and true.
On this day and in every day all glory belongs to You.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks:
for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Thank You Lord

I have a lot to be thankful for;
So many blessings from the Lord.
They are too many to count;
So great is the amount.
Some of the gifts delivered to my door,
Are unexpected things I wasn’t looking for.
They are over-the-top blessings that fill to overflow;
That cause deep peace and joy in my heart and soul.
I am thankful for the gift of salvation most of all.
It never gets old….on heart’s knees I fall.
I love the Word of God; how it speaks loud and clear,
Of His everlasting love and how it chases away fear.
I love the knowledge and the sure confidence within,
That He is not only my Lord…. He is my friend.
Food, shelter, health, family and friends;
Are all more blessings I’ve received from Him.
My cup runs over…. so great is my supply each day.
I will sing out in adoration and will His name praise.
Thank You, thank You…. let all of the earth rejoice;
Let all that has breath, in thanksgiving raise their voice!

1 Chronicles 16:31
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice: and let men say among the nations, The LORD reigneth.

Psalms 118:29
O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
