A thankful heart creates a thankful home
Filled with love and understanding
So that grace can abound
A thankful heart will break down the walls of pride
‘Cause overcoming every problem
Begins with a thankful heart
Always rejoicing and praying constantly
In every circumstance we should give thanks
For this is the will of God
Concerning you and me
Only then can we discover
Joy and liberty
(Repeat chorus)
Now binding the attitude of all dissatisfaction
Will only happen when we’re giving thanks
For His grace will meet us
And nothing can defeat us
When thanksgiving’s offered
As a sacrifice of praise
It’s time to let selfishness go
And allow the living water to overflow
United in one purpose we’ll conquer the darkness
When the spirit of thanksgiving is shining in our souls
(Repeat chorus)
