Notes About The Poem

 

I Am So Thankful

I AM SO THANKFUL

This I say, as I pray.
Oh! Lord God I am so thankful
I am so thankful, I am so thankful
I am so thankful, I am so thankful
I am so thankful, I am so thankful
This I may seem somewhat dismayed yet I am
Oh! Lord God so thankful for you
You given me a better reality
Giving me air to breath and a whole to see
Just you and me and
I am so glad ever so thankful that you made me who I am
I am so ever happy that you have made me yours
I am so thankful for the rain
I am so thankful for everything
I am so thankful for my pains
I am so thankful for my name
Thankful for your touch
Love you so much
And 
I am so thankful for those spiritual things
Thankful for my mundane grin…
Oh, and I am thank full
I’m thankful
Lord I am ever so thankful, thankful
And I I Oh I am thankful
And I am ever so glad to be alive 
And I am so happy you’ve allowed Christ to die
Die and then be risen up
Thank you God for this
I am so glad ever so thankful that you made me who I am
I am so ever happy that you have made me yours
I am so thankful for the rain
I am so thankful for everything
I am so thankful for my pains
I am so thankful for my name
Thankful for your touch
Love you so much
And 
I am, I am so ever so glad
Lord God I am so
I am so thankful, I am thankful
