PLEASE AND THANK-YOU
I wonder if gratitude is fading fast away,
Appreciation for God saved for another day?
I know I did well in my history test today,
It was because I studied hard all the way.
This maybe true, but who gave the skill
To that person, who gave them the will
To work hard, who many gifts does bestow
On all His children down on earth below?
Our talents come from our God up above,
He gives us these talents because of His love
For all His many children, for us to then grow
More like Him and always our gratitude show.
Even in our daily lives when others give to us
Do we say please or thank-you without a fuss?
We need to show gratitude for every simple thing,
For that will in part our eternal glory one day bring.
