WHEN I THINK
When I think of all the blessings that come my way,
For can I not thank my Father above every day,
Living in a place where there is safety all around,
And sweet peace and gentle love often to be found.
When I think of the great beauty that around I see
Gratitude for my sight and it’s enormous value to me ,
The vision of each season that gives me joy and hope.
Also the strength I have to always manage to cope.
When I think of my family with all their love and care,
I just have to thank Father for all His love He does share.
Then the willing sacrifice of His only begotten son,
To save us all so the battle over death would be won.
I hope that my gratitude will be sufficient every day
To thank Father above for the blessing that come my way.
Songs of praise from my voice and heart I hope will be
Enough to show my eternal thanks, dear Father unto Thee.
