To God, I知 Thankful


I知 thankful for each strand of hair
That grows upon my head
I知 thankful for the clothes I wear
And for a nice warm bed.

I知 thankful for the caring friends
Who make me feel so glad
I知 thankful for a doctor痴 care
When I am feeling bad.

I知 thankful for my family
Who cheer me when I知 blue
I知 thankful for the U.S.A.
And for our soldiers too.

I知 thankful for the gentle rains
That fall upon the earth
I知 thankful for the life it brings
And for a baby痴 birth.

I知 thankful for a sky of red
In early morning light
I知 thankful for the setting sun
And for the stars at night.

I知 thankful for a place to pray
And for the books I read
I知 thankful for a loving God
Who meets my every need.
