I'm thankful when there's blue skies And for rainy days too I'm thankful that even On my worst of days Your son shines in my heart anew Even though my cup may seems empty And I've had my share of trials You tasted of the cup of sorrow You followed your Lord's command You walked there before me In the shadow of death You hung upon that hill Each day you spread a beautiful table Before me, befitting a queen And I feast my eyes on your blessings And all the many things that are unseen Some of them can't be measured Or touched with human hands But can only be felt In the soul of man When I take the time to think About all the things that you have done My little cup of thankfulness Is soon overflowing with joy And peace and love For its such a honor to have a friend That watches over me like you do Whether I am in the shadow or the sunlight Your eyes never sleep You truly are my Shepard And I am but a Sheep Lord, I need to stay Right near your feet.

Septsong, this befits many moments...a Sunday morning, Thanksgiving, every day... well done... Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, then speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Septsong; I will be with you at His feet, for I know I am nothing without Him. Beautiful poem, my friend. Love, Ellie le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne con-nait point....the heart has its reasons that reason knows nothing of.. |

Amen! A wonderful prayer! It's at his feet, when we humbly bow before him, that he blesses. Deb |

This has really touched me tonight...as well as opened my eyes, and brought me hope, as I struggle through yet another trial. Absolutely heart provoking! ![]() We do have much to be thankful for. <*\\\>< I know not what the future holds, but I know Who holds the future. I don't question YOUR existance - GOD |
