Poetry Sunday ~ I Give Thanks

1 Chron. 16: 8 Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his deeds among the people.

 

 I Give Thanks

 For all we are and all we do
we give our thanks each day.
We live, grow, change and mend
I give my thanks and pray.

I thank my mother and father
for all the things they gave.
Within their hand they held my life
but only One could save.

I led the life He wanted for me
although the road was rough.
I never look back with any regret
the rocky roads were tough.

The path was laid before we were born
the forks were all in place.
Which we chose was a cosmic bend
that altered time and space.

I found a cross in my walk
as I wandered through each year.
Whimsical times and frenzied mind
He made it all seem clear.

The crystal shell lay in shards
glass was torn to pieces.
He put them all together again
my love for Him never ceases!

I thank the Lord for carrying me
through my most daunting days.
I’m mended now because of Him,
a path of newfound ways.

Poetry Sunday ~ Giving Thanks


 

Job 8: 13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish:

Giving Thanks...


 ***

For all we are and all we do

we give our thanks each day.

We live, grow, change and mend

I give my thanks and pray.



I thank my mother and father

for all the things they gave.

Within their hand they held my life

but only One could save.



I led the life He wanted for me

although the road was rough.

I never look back with any regret.

the unpaved journey was tough.



The path was laid before we were born

the forks were all in place.

Which we chose was a cosmic bend

that altered time and space.



I found a cross in my walk

as I wandered through each year.

Whimsical times and frenzied mind

He made it all come clear.



The crystal shell lay in shards

glass was torn to pieces.

He put them all together again

My love for Him never ceases!



I thank the Lord for carrying me

through life’s seasoned highway.

I’m mended now because of Him,

No longer are things done my way.



It’s His way or No WAY!
