A Thankful Day

Today I’ll have a thankful day
And lift my heart in praise
For all the Lord has done for me
In big and little ways.

For sunny skies and healing rain,
For labor and for rest,
For friends and loved ones near and far –
How richly I’ve been blessed!

Though I may shed a tear or two,
My day will still be bright,
Because a thankful attitude
Makes any day alright.

Lord, thank You most of all for grace,
For always being there,
For saving me and showing me
Such tender, loving care.
