A BOUNTY OF APPRECIATION

A BOUNTY OF APPRECIATION



At Thanksgiving, I offer
My appreciation,
True and bountiful, O Lord,
From my humble station.

God I am grateful You have
Given me all I need.
I have nothing more to ask,
Yet one thing do I plead.

I pray I may have bounty
Of appreciation,
For all that I have received
From this my great nation.

Let me appreciate that
I’m Your humble servant,
And that to serve Your creatures,
My life is only meant.

Let me appreciate the
Pain of those who suffer,
So that to them relief and
Sympathy I offer.

Let me appreciate that
Even the low and meek
Do have much of Your goodness,
Though they be poor and weak.

Let me appreciate God
That my all is, of course,
Not something to be proud of,
Because it is all Yours.
