Give thanks to the Lord, bless his name. For theLordis good; his steadfast love endures forever, and his faithfulness to all generations.
Psalm 100:4-5
A Sonnet of Thanksgiving
Thankful we are, and thankful we should be,
For the Lord is good, now and forever.
And so we give thanks, with gladness and glee,
Rejoicing in grace beyond all measure.
But we dare not wait until tomorrow,
When sadness might come and make this harder,
When our joys might become touched by sorrow,
When today’s blessings seem to be farther
Than time or memory can hold on to.
Thanks, like manna, should daily be given,
Before our struggles lead us to eschew
Steadfast mercies and grace that seems hidden.
So let us not store gratitude like grain,
But give our thanks now, again and again.
