In Every Thing Give Thanks

I decided to share a special guest post from Tennessee poet and pastor, Robert Fultz, in honor of Thanksgiving. Robert shares many of his beautiful poems over on Facebook at PreacherPoems and at his blog. 

Every day I think about

How good God is to me

A healthy body, thankful heart

My loving family.

I wake up thankful each new day

For blessings I've received

And every night when I lie down

Thank God I'm not deceived.

I know the Bible is God's Word

No longer I'm a slave

Through faith in Jesus I have hope

That goes beyond the grave.

Thank God for those who taught me well

This truth I can't deny

That Jesus died for sinful men

For such a worm as I.

I'm saved by grace through faith alone

His blood now covers all

What Jesus did on Calvary

Redeemed me from the fall.

So yes I'm thankful to the Lord

And thankful I'll remain

Until my last breath I shall draw

You'll not hear me complain.
