THANKS FOR THE DAY, LORD
It seems this day when it was fresh and new
I should have started thanking you.
The birds all start their day
That way.
I’ve heard them when
They seem to say.
They thank you from the morning light
They thank you til the day is night.
The flowers lift their faces too,
They’re all smiling
And thanking you.
I watch the palm trees
In the breeze,
They too just seem to please.
If we remember everyday
To thank you for
What comes our way.
We’ll thank you in the morning light
We’ll thank you when we say good night.
