Not Faithless But Wondrously Thankful
This is the version of my perspective as a Believer vis-a-vis Black Country Communion Song's "Faithless"
Victorious heart praises the Lord as Source
Midst thanksgiving for blessings everyday
Toward accomplishment along work force
Brought by blest compassion and mercy’s ray.
Vigilant soul worships with joyous glow
Midst gratitude for faith-fortitude’s brace
Toward wondrous service by blessings’ flow
Marked by redemption upon hope and grace.
Vibrant spirit does pray in sincere plight
Midst gratefulness for glad attitude’s zest
Toward sharing along caring delight
With fulfillment of miraculous best.
Giving thanks* to God for His love so great
Life’s peaceful bliss declares reliance-trait.
*1Chronicles 16:34 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
