Notes About The Poem

I'M Thankful - 1

I’m thankful for His tender mercies and grace
The breath of faith that I always seem to embrace

I’m thankful for His compassionate whisper of love
The feelings that keep me filled with joy from above

I’m thankful for His wisdom, strength and kind word
His sympathetic nature assures me that I am heard

I’m thankful for His comfort when I’m living in fear
The miracle of His encouragement helps me all year

I’m thankful for His answers to all of my prayers
The inspirational truths that relieve all my cares

I’m thankful for His kindness which sings to my soul
Creating a purity within me that makes me feel whole

I’m thankful for His knowledge that sends me hope
Warming my plans with words to help me to cope

I’m thankful for His loving spirit which welcomes me
Promising me that I am loved beyond what I can see

I’m thankful for His glorious rays of the sun and Son
Who guides me toward home when my race is won

I’m thankful for the chance to give back a small part
Of all the love I’ve been given by One inside my heart
