“…give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

To You, O Lord,
Endless thanks we give,
For Your limitless love,
For life to live,

For grace abounding,
For beauty in all things,
For the deep joy
Your divine love brings,

For smiling children,
For families so dear,
For seasonal celebrations
Drawing loved ones near.

Yes, Lord Jesus,
Thanksgiving we raise
With songs of love,
With hymns of praise.

Thankful each day
May we be,
With our eyes fixed
On eternity,

Holding You
To our hearts so dear,
Rejoicing how You
Are always near,

Smiling in radiance
Your presence brings,
Lifting our hearts
As on angel’s wings.

Yes, wonderful it is
This life to live…
So to You, Lord Jesus,
Endless thanks we give!
