Who's Thankful?

Who's Thankful?
by Kimberly

With so many blessing,
So many many things,
How can we not be thankful
To the King of Kings?
He’s provided for our clothes,
Our shelter and our food.
He’s given us friends and family,
And He’s always in a good mood!
God’s given so many gifts
But we give back not much.
Doesn’t He deserve the thanks
Of His children and such?
That God loves us,
He chose us to be His,
That He gives us grace,
And His peace there is,
For these things and so much more
Thankful we should be.
I give you thanks, God,
You are so good to me.
Thank you for all you’ve done
For all that you have made
Thank you for your loving voice
That guides us before we’ve strayed.
Thank you for your blessings
Your gifts of toes and noses,
Friends, family, neighbors,
Rocks, dirt, and roses.
Houses trees and pots
Beds, carpets, showers,
Trees, mountains, valleys,
Animals, bugs, and flowers.
Dishes, teeth, and rain,
Laughter, swings, snow,
Butterflies, grass, and leaves,
God made them all, you know.
There’s always so much more
That we fail to think or say.
But we offer a thankful heart,
To you our King, today.
Happy Thanksgiving!

  2. Yes! Thank you God, for everything! Kimby do you remember that song we made up at the park a long time ago about thanking God?
