"In Every thing GIVE THANKS
for this is the will of God in CHRIST JESUS
concerning you." I Thessalonians 5:18
What blessed the heart
of the fugitive
hiding from Saul
in Adullam’s cave?
What turned the battle
so Judah would live?
Praise and Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving and Praise!
What did the leper
return to bring
faithful to glorify
God’s great ways?
What did those jailed
at Philippi sing?
Praise and Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving and Praise!
What lifts the spirits
of those depressed,
burdened or grieving
o’er yesterdays?
What sacrifices
are always blessed?
Praise and Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving and Praise!
What brings delight
at the Throne above
as multitudes worship
the Lamb Who saves?
What will continue
as long as Love?
Praise and Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving and Praise!
