Like the joy that bubbled up
In a tiny baby's laugh-
Or the healings and forgiveness
God bestowed on our behalf,

Like the fellowship of others
Whose hearts are set above-
Following our Lord's command
To show to one another love,

Like valiant hearts of those who fought
In the name of truth and right,
To repel the dreaded onslaught
Of some evil tyrant's might,

Like a dear friend's words of comfort
In despairing time of stress
For accomplishments and triumphs
That brought us happiness.

Oh, no, we could not name them all
For our Lord's done so much more
In our lives and in our hearts
Since He opened Heaven's Door.

But hopefully we can remember
That we often stopped to pray-
And by praising our Lord daily,
Made each day Thanksgiving Day!
