I Am Ever So Thankful--

I awaken in the morning; My eyes are opened; The first thing I see is you God; I feel your presents in me I see your presents all around me And I thank you God Oh, also joyously I am ever so thankful for I am thankful for your love I am thankful for your son But most of all I am thankful For the grace and salvation you’ve given me I am thankful So thankful My eyes are closed; My last breathe drawn; If your he now then you’re attending my funeral; My body here, yet I’m not here; For you see my true self had gone home I am thankful for your love I am thankful for your son But most of all I am thankful For the grace and salvation you’ve given me I am thankful So thankful!

Just being thankful, I think, is much devotion.
