In times of trouble
When worries seem
large
It’s hard to
remember
To be thankful for
The many blessings
We really have
All of our woes
Seem to be calling
Crushing our will
to go on
We tend to focus on
What will I do
And how will I cope
In all of our
frenzy
We tend to lose
hope
All the good in our
lives
Becomes lost in the
mire
But pause just a
moment
And look all around
Have you a home
And a family close
by
Do you have clothes
on your back
And food on your
plate
Can you walk around
the corner
Say hello to a
friend
Look around and see
God’s glory abounds
Into His hands
Put your cares and
your woes
Be thankful for the
pleasures
Both the big and
the small
God sends your way
Put a smile on your
face
And a vow in your
heart
To find something
each day
To thank our God
for!
