58. Thank Him for Something Each Day

1 ‘Tis easy to fret over troubles
And grieve over trials you meet,
But why not remember your Father
And count up His blessings so sweet?
Suppose that you turn from the sorrows
Which sometimes are found in the way,
Just think of His kindness and mercy
And thank Him for something each day.

Chorus:
O thank Him for something each day,
The blessings which brighten life’s way,
‘Tis vain to regret, each sorrow forget,
And thank Him for something each day.

2 ‘Tis easy to brood over evil
Which sometimes must come to each life,
And think that the world which you live in
Means nothing but struggle and strife;
But why not be grateful for friendships
Which gladden your heart on the way?
Just think of the joys which they bring you
And thank Him for something each day. [Chorus]

3 ‘Tis easy to frown when the sunshine
Gives place to the clouds and the rain,
When thorny and rough is the pathway
‘Tis easy to sigh and complain;
But why not remember the blossoms
Which bloom’d at your feet on the way?
Just think of life’s brightness and beauty
And thank Him for something each day. [Chorus]
