Thanks In All Circumstances (1 Thes. 5:18)

(Inspired by St. Paul, Beth Lux, and John Harburg)

My vehicle will often stall
I tend to gripe and frown and moan
But many have no wheels at all…

So thank You for a car to own

My house has lost its power, Lord
The pipes are froze; there ain’t no heat
But thank You for a place to board…

When thousands freeze out on the street

Our church is old and needs repair
How will we raise the funds, Oh Lord?
But thank You for a building where…

Our flock can gather to adore

A friend has judged me; I feel blue
Another said some things unfair
But thank You for these friends, though few…

Who let me feel Your love and care
