The midi you are listening
to is
entitled "GIVE THANKS"
by Henry Smith, arranged and
sequenced by JJ Johnson
I love the melody and
I've tried to find
the lyrics to use on my Thanksgiving
page,
but no luck.
The next best thing was to
write my own lyrics ...
so I did.
I hope you like them,
and
Give
thanks for this special day
Give
thanks for the chance to say,
Dear
Lord, I am truly blessed today.
I pray...
Keep safe
all those I hold dear.
Keep
safe those both far and near.
Keep
safe those who need your guiding light - tonight.
And if
some day I should ever be
Less then you expect of me
Then,
O Lord, please help me see your grace more perfectly.
Amen.
Share
love with a needy soul.
Share
love as a daily goal.
Share
love and you will truly feel alive.
And strive
to...
Give thanks
for the little things.
Give
thanks for the smiles it brings.
Give
thanks, and let your heart take wings and fly on high.
But if
life seems to be going wrong.
Try your
hardest to be strong
For silent
prayers are on their way - today!
And when
you can feel your spirit soar.
Share
the love and joy once more
With yet
another who is sad.
Be glad
and...
Give thanks
with all your might,
Give
thanks for the right to
Give
thanks.
