The Thank You Things
It’s the little kindly things,
the "won’t-you-let-me-help-you" things
that make our pathway light
It’s the jolly joking things
the "never-mind-the trouble" things
that make the world seem
bright.
For all the countless famous things
those "never-can-be equaled" things
that all the papers cite
Aren’t like the everyday-encounter things
that make things seem just right.
So here’s to all the simple things
the "smile-and–face-your troubles" things
trust God to put them right
the "can’t-you- see-I–love-you" things
That make life worth the fight.
