Gratitude: The Holy Land of the Heart
Gratitude is powerful medicine—it lifts us out of worry, re-centers our focus on God, and reminds us of His faithful hand.
GRATITIDE
Thankful for God's gratitude
It somehow changes attitude
As it honors those nearby
It lifts me past my fretful sigh
Yes, grateful for my family
Grateful for a remedy
Grateful for both friend and foe
Grateful to the God I know
A grateful heart in all its ways
Thanks the Lord with words to say
And give me light, no matter where
In gloomy days and those more fair
Gratitude points out from me
To Another I can't see
Now more thankful than before
My mind no longer is at war
Like a pill to fix a pain
Gratitude can lift a stain
And calm my world as winds arise
And point me upward to the skies
All that's good has at its source
A thankful heart along life's course
I owe to Him His watchful hand
Yes, gratitude's a Holy land
