[Written for the Sentinel]

Gratitude

Have you felt God's love to-day
Even in some little way,
Tender smile or kindly word,
Or a helpful message heard?
Then be grateful for to-day!

Have you learned a bit to-day,
How to better serve, and pray,
How to better help a need,
How thy brother's call to heed?
Then be grateful for to-day

Have you gleaned a little more
Grace to worship and adore
Him whose glory you can praise
Only following Christly ways?
Then be grateful for to-day!

Have you better understood
Life in God, forever good,
Life that knows no sin or strife,
Perfect, pure, eternal life?
Then be grateful for to-day!

Yes, be grateful for to-day;
Gratitude drives woes away,
Good unfolds in glorious light
God's own day, without a night!
Then be grateful for to-day!
