Gratitude

by Ron Tranmer

Everyday is a gift from God
and one to celebrate.
It matters not the challenges
we find upon our plate.

Let's go through life with gratitude
through sickness, trials and pain,
and do our best to pass life's test
and return to God again.

Everyone upon the earth
has challenges and trials.
Some endure complaining,
and others through their smiles.

Just think about our Savior
and the pain that He endured.
He suffered all for me and you
with no complaining word.

So as we travel down life's road
amid it's ruts and dips,
Let's never let complaining words
pass through our thankful lips.
