I am thankful every day!
Life is never perfect
Troubles come our way
Some are here for a while
Others come to stay.
Conflict, setbacks, disappointment
These are all our fare
But in our times of trouble
There are those who care.
Precious family members
Who take us as we are
When our need is greatest
They are never far.
The sound of children’s laughter
A tiny baby’s cry
A kitten, softly purring
A rainbow in the sky.
A peaceful Sabbath morning
Hearing church bells ring
Choir music so sweet
It makes the heart sing.
We fail to see the flowers
Just complain about the weeds
God’s blessings are there
Only for those who see.
His beauty all around us
Warmth, comfort, leisure, play
Flowers, trees, rivers, mountains
Quiet nights and bright new days.
