Give thanks to God for what you;ve got,
even if it seems not enough.
By blood was your salvation bought,
and if you want more, tough.
Give thanks for every breath you take
even if it’s fouled by smoke;
don’t let the Christ think it mistake
that for you, on His blood He’d choke.
Give thanks for every stab of pain
that lets you now you’re still alive,
and living, that you can remain
and in your faith may someday thrive.
Life’s not a day-trip to the mall;
it’s offering to Him who gave it all.
