Today I thank You, Lord,
For all the joys You bring -
For rainbows in the sky -
For flowers in the spring -
For warmth of gentle rain
That falls from up above -
For wealth of little prayers
That fill my need for love -
For friends who fail me not
When I am in some need,
When my despair is plain to see,
Are there my soul to feel.
You are so kind and gentle, Lord,
Forgive the faults in me
And keep me ever close to You
Until I come to Thee.
-Edna Fontaine
