Gratitude

Echoing Psalm 136, this solo illustrates the blessings of gratitude.

O give thanks unto the Lord for He is good for His mercy endureth forever.
In the light of understanding, on the straight and narrow path,
You’ll receive all of God’s blessings, for He gives you all He hath.
Every trial is a blessing, for a proof of the Father’s care.
If you look very carefully, you’ll find blessings everywhere.

Gratitude brings the sunshine that lights the stormy sky;
Its rainbow a reminder that God is always nigh.

Gratitude brings the gentle rain to those who are athirst,
And blessings bud and blossom when we learn to put God first.
If you know all things are possible, you’ll see blessings great and small,
So count them before they’re seen, and be grateful for them all.
Turn to God with thanksgiving for all you have been given,
And blessings pour abundantly, for this is the way of heaven.

Gratitude brings the sunshine that lights the stormy sky;
Its rainbow a reminder that God is always nigh.
Gratitude brings the gentle rain to those who are athirst,
And blessings bud and blossom when we learn to put God first.
O give thanks unto the Lord for He is good for His mercy endureth forever.
