Thankfulness for what He’s done:
Jesus our salvation won,
now His Spirit draws our hearts
to the grace that He imparts:
out of blindness, darkness, death
to His light in glorious birth.
Nothing else to add to that –
all by Him procured, and what
some may foolishly suggest
as an “extra” do resist.
As we now have this new life,
flee from all that brings him grief.
Growing thus in godliness
life is full of thankfulness.
Daily praying, knowing love
grace and mercy far above
what we ever could deserve –
daily gifts help as we serve
