Thank for Gifts


Allow it not to be ignored,
I greatly rejoice in the Lord;
For no doubt I can truly see,
He shows such great interest in me.

God has always had a concern,
But I never did try to learn;
Of all His tender loving care,
That He is so willing to share.

I am not saying to concede,
Being in any kind of need;
Because I learned to be content,
Even through trials and torment.

For I have lived in poverty,
As well as in prosperity;
Remembering to avoid sin,
Regardless what spot I am in.

I have learned the secret of how,
To live and what God will allow;
For His hand has a gentle touch,
With not too little or too much.

I do everything through Christ,
Remembering He was sacrificed;
With giving me the strength to go,
To follow the blessings that flow.

So I will be using the gift,
That Jesus gave me to uplift;
Of all the people that I greet,
In our passing as we meet.
