Thank God

He pours out His love
Across the entire world

In spite of pain and depression
Worry, fear and disillusionment
There is joy and enthusiasm
Reassurance, faith and encouragement

He fills hearts with His light
Rekindling love in each beat

In spite of storms that linger on
The thunderous pounding and lightning bolt
There is sunshine and rainbows
Which create a sense of happiness

He renews troubled minds
With a gentle touch of hope

In spite of the troubles and strife
The sorrows, grief and heartache
There is a dream to dream, a second chance
A better way to restore today

He fills up a life with hope, faith and love
And every good gift from above.

Take a moment to thank God 
For all that He has given us!!!
