there is so much I have to be thankful for
but it's a matter of choice
because there are plenty of things I could complain about as well
so each day, yes, even each moment, I decide
what will my focus be right now
will I choose to rejoice and be grateful
or will I allow my mind to go down the path of negativity
complaining is a natural response
because satisfaction alludes me
but gratitude is a godly response
it results from trust that God is good
and He governs my life graciously
the results of gratitude are joy, peace, and contentment
what a place to live
I'm thankful God has rescued me out of a life of despair
He lifted me out of darkness
I'm thankful God is my strength and my song
the psalmist declared, "He has put a new song in my heart!"
and I have experienced that as well
I'm thankful for the songs God gives
thankful too for His word
I'm thankful God is a promise keeper
His word is sure
it is an anchor that holds me fast
I'm thankful for the way God reveals Himself in His word
He is the Author of salvation
He is the source of wisdom
He is the Bread of Life
the Living Water
I'm thankful God is faithful and true
thankful He is patient and kind
I'm thankful God's grace is sufficient for any hardship I might face
I'm thankful God's love is an everlasting love
