Being Thankful

Lord for the privilege of knowing You
Your presence with me in everything I do
Your Spirit’s leading in my life
The calming of fear and strife
I am thankful

The blessings of my family and home
No longer the desire and need to roam
The sweet music I have the privilege to hear
Looking forward to eternity without fear
For these things I am thankful

Freedom to worship as I please
Not having to bow before an idol to appease
The blessings of intercessory prayer
Knowing there are others who really care
I am indeed thankful

The assessibility to Your precious Word
The gospel shared and being heard
A living faith growing with each year
The hearts of believers I hold so dear
For all these things I am thankful
