I Am Thankful

I am Thankful

For the green grass
For the blue sky
For the red rose
For clouds so high
I am thankful.

For the blue bird
For the brown bear
For the pine tree
For the fresh air
I am thankful.

For the white sand
For the blue seas
For foamy waves
For the cool breeze
I am thankful.

For the cool rain
For the white snow
For the gray days
Feel the wind blow
I am thankful.

For mom and dad
For my good wife
For my great kids
To enjoy life
I am thankful.

To the great God
Who made it all
And loves me so
When I do fall
I am thankful.

The Word of God
That came to man
That brought to life
Salvation’s plan
I am thankful.

I am thankful
I am thankful
I have it all
I am thankful.
