We're always quick to call on God in times of
distress or trouble.
Help me Lord! Give me a job!
Get me out of this situation!
Make me well!
Our demands on Him are constant. But how do we fare on the thanksgiving
scale?
Do we spare the time to thank Him for all the good gifts He surrounds
us with?
Take time to give thanks. It changes your whole world-view.
Chorus: I want to thank you, Lord (3)
For all you've given me (Repeat).
For the song on my lips and the gift of poetry
For writing skills and a world of opportunity
For family and friends and the love surrounding me
I want to thank you, Lord for all you've given me. Chorus.
Teach me to reach out to others that I see
Feel the different needs of people around me
Let me not be all wrapped up in "myself" and "me"
I want to thank you Lord, for all you've given me. Chorus.
For the blue skies above and the earth beneath the
spreading tree
For little children as they laugh out loud in glee
For flowers that look like sunbeams scattered around
I want to thank you Lord, for all you've given me. Chorus.
