Every Good Gift

 

The blessings of the Lord are vast,
For boundless is His love,
And all good gifts that we receive
Are from heaven above.
 
He is the hope when we are lost
Within the dark of night.
His is the strength that helps us find
Our way back to the light.
 
He is the shield that guards our souls
And lifts us from despair
When this world seeks to break our hearts,
And no one seems to care.
 
Where in this world could we find all
The gifts that mark each day,
Those that we take for granted and
Those splendid in array.
 
Stop wasting time counting your woes,
Instead count each blessing,  
Then lift your praise to Heaven’s King,
Whose love, such blessings bring.
 
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
