Thanking God

Bringing Me Up when I'm Down

If ever I would be feeling sad and blue,
Let me tell you exactly what I would do;
I would turn my thoughts over to God,
Praising Him as I would start to applaud;
I would thank Him for the air we breathe,
Allowing us to hear our babies who teethe;
I'd thank Him for the sun during the day,
That brightens up where children play;
I would thank Him for the falling rain,
Nourishing the earth to grow the grain;
I would thank Him for the moon at night,
That is able to reflect some radiant light;
I would thank Him for the waters flowing,
And the purity white when it's snowing;
I would thank Him of the nature's diversity,
As well as our very own unique capability;
I would thank Him for love and my wife,
That is such a blessing within my life;
Thanking Him for all that He has done,
And allowing the sacrifice of His Son;
