More Thanks

It seems wrong to ask for those things that are promised us. And to ask for them every day seems even worse. Our Father is never impatient and receives our every request of Him with equal attention, but wouldn’t we be better serve do the things that please Him even more, like Thanking Him. There are so many things to give thanks for.

 

More Thanks

 

Lord you promised to take care of me

Enrich me with your blessing

So why do I pray repeatedly

So much ask and so little thanking

Allow me today my daily bread

Secure me from my enemies

Keep me from temptation and Lord instead

Send me riches and glories

My prays they taught me as a young boy

Our wishes to Him we should declare

Repeatedly asking until we enjoy

Every bounty we prayed for is here

Thankfully this has changed now I have grown

How wrong my elders taught me

Almighty God is omniscient and my desires had known

Now I know the truths of His glory

Kudos and Exaltations to Him I now pray

Yesterdays now better than I knew

Our Father above has willed His way

Ultimately I’m better with less asks and more thank you
