Thankful Thursdy

I am thankful that my new azalea's are doing great.

We Thank Thee
By: Ralph Waldo Emerson


For flowers that bloom about our feet,
Father, we thank Thee.
For tender grass so fresh, so sweet,
Father, we thank Thee.
For the song of bird and hum of bee,
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee.

For blue of stream and blue of sky,
Father, we thank Thee.
For pleasant shade of branches high,
Father, we thank Thee.
For fragrant air and cooling breeze,
For beauty of the blooming trees,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee.

For this new morning with its light,
Father, we thank Thee.
For rest and shelter of the night,
Father, we thank Thee
For health and food, for love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee.

Anxious for them to grow!!

Until Next Time
Thankful for all the Lord provides.

  4. My grandmother used to have the most beautiful Azaleas! I've never been able to keep them alive but I would have a yard full if I could! The poem is just as beautiful as you flowers!

    Grace & Peace,
