I spend today thinking about what I’m most thankful for…
Searching my heart…finding the words true
Counting the blessings I’ve been bestowed in this life
Realizing Lord…I’m most thankful for You
I give thanks… for my family and my friends
For those who surround me with comfort and love
For those who will share my heart till the end
Knowing each was sent by You; my Father above
I give thanks for… the air that I breathe
For the beauty that surrounds me every day
For nature’s wonders created by Your hands
Within earth’s majesty; I walk the path You have laid
I give thanks for…prayers bearing my name
For my Father who answers every prayerful call
For Your grace, Your love, and Your strength
I need daily; as I stumble and I fall
I give thanks for…the obstacles I overcome
For the strength that gets me through…each day
For the “bad” that will produce something good
Trusting if I put it before You; You will show me Your way
I give thanks for…love in my life
For love’s journey and every lesson learned
For the joy that surpasses the pain it can bring
For the One love; freely given; never earned
I give thanks for…all… seen and unseen
For my journey tomorrow and the memories of my past
For giving me the vision… to see You… in me
Hoping to serve you first; and my self “needs” last
Thanks is given… to You every day
As my purpose in this world You unfold
I thank You… in every prayer that I pray
For allowing me to be a heart… that You hold
