Thankful
by Bryan Miles

I've a tank-full to be thankful for
Deep inside,
To be frank-full I'm so thankful
You're true, and you're tried!
You give me the breath of life
And with every passing day,
I'm so thankful for the people
You have brought my way;
I'm thankful for the rain
The sun and the snow,
I'm thankful you are with me
Wherever I go!
You always walk beside me
In the midst of every storm,
You grant me a bed of peace
And that peace, keeps me warm!
There's a bank-full to be thankful for
Where do I start?
I'm thankful that Jesus,
Lives in my heart;
I'm thankful for Your Word
I'm thankful for Your light,
That brushes across my soul
And leads me towards the right;
I'm thankful for Thanksgiving
When everyone gathers around,
I'm thankful for family voices
That wonderful, thankful sound!
I'm thankful for the faces
That sit around the table,
I'm thankful for those who would be here!
If only they were able
I'm thankful for the turkey
That cuts so tender with a knife,
But most of all I'm thankful,
For Your Son, He gave me life....
