On Giving Thanks


 It's the Time of year when Thanks Giving reasons multiply by bloom-lent bushel!

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
1 Thess.5:18 KJV

Because giving thanks is no spectator sport
And because Christ died once for all
No one has no reason to worship the Lord
Who authored and honours Love’s call

Because giving thanks changes complaint to praise
And makes us more humbly attuned
To blessing and beauty that showers our days
To mercy, each morning renewed

Because giving thanks spears the darkness with light
And touches our sorrows with joy
No one has no reason to count with all might
What Self-centered want would destroy

Because giving thanks is not simply a whim
No one has no reason to not give to Him
Glad worship of head, heart and hand
