Ever, Give Thanks

We’re made to give thanks
Praise God’s Holy Name
Yes, whatever our lot
Be grateful, all the same.

With a focus on obeying
God’s truths, they go share
More multiplying disciples
Prayerfully go, everywhere.

Do count it all joy
When trials fall your way
For the testing of faith
Builds patience, each day.

For our focus is body
But God speaks to the soul
Our faith, His redemption
These make a man whole.

For our Father, the vine-dresser
Is pruning, discarding
As branches, of His vine
For more fruit…keep abiding.

And so, despite facing testing
Know ‘tis but for a while
In the end, greater glory
So greet with joy, every trial.

And while God offers good
Temptation brings evil
Understanding our choice
Be His righteous people.

Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.

In Jesus’ suffering, God’s path
To bless fallen man
In His cross, our daily dying
God has shown us, His plan.

‘In Me, you have peace’
Spoke Jesus, God’s Son
‘In the world, tribulation
Be courageous… I’ve overcome’.
