Poem
Life gets in the way and somedays I find it hard To even laugh or play - after all is said and done Have I even prayed? The gratitude that I should Have shared with my God, the One who gave me All the wonders, the blessings that color my heart In hope and peace, grace that lights my soul’s way Yes, that gratitude – that thanks Was it spoken of or even given To the One who made my way A way of blessings, a way of joy A way of kindness, hope and more A way of love that is alive and holds The key to my faith, giving me wings When I wasn’t even sure I could fly When I didn’t know if I could try Yes, that gratitude – that appreciation It melts the heart’s calloused skin With conviction that when I begin again I’ll have the answers because I’ve been to Him The One who shines a light into the darkness The One who quiets the storm with silence The One who leads me home when I’m lost The One who brings victory when I feel afraid The One who fills my soul with assurance That everything good will come to me Because I believe Him, the One who brings me Out of the pain, into the hope, filling me up With a blend of joy, peace and eternal love Yes, that gratitude – appreciates each blessing The ones that I fail to notice – like hope and affection Grace to lead me toward the path of peace and joy The miracle of true belief amid the worst pain and sorrow A feeling that God will always be with me, providing The opportunity to take the right way, lift up my soul To His light – reflecting the sweetness that shines From a wonderful inspiration, filled with imagination Wonder discovered amid the blessings He contributes From the source of all life, the victor, the light The One who holds the key to hope, faith and love The key to our blessings – the key to our eternity The One who gives us all a reason to praise Him The One who brings us out of the dark that dissuades Yes, that gratitude – believes and foresees All the music played by the ones who believe He is alive, dancing like a dream on the prayer Of those who listen to their heart and soul Find a way to worship from their very hope And give back a piece of their joy to the One Who goes before them, making a way so they know He is the answer to every worry, doubt or fear He will provide the music to every expectant ear He lights up the heavens and the earth too With His amazing grace that gives us each the chance To whisper a prayer, accepting the Savior The answer to our need for redemption – our need For the One who fills our life with peace and thanksgiving!
