Love Thanks

How do I thank You this Thanksgiving Day?
All You’ve done, Lord, I don’t know where to start,
since You know all, it’s not just words I say,
I thank You from the bottom of my heart.

Yet gratitude is not just how I feel,
my attitude will prove itself in prayer,
with body language, fold my hands and kneel,
for public thanks, my church will see me there.

Sincerest thanks are best shown by my love,
I love You most obeying Your commands,
but added to my love for You above,
I feed the hungry with my thankful hands.

And Lord, while filling up their empty bowls,
I’ll live Your love to fill their hungry souls.
