Give Thanks
SONYA SPENCE Lyrics

Every day, we are complaining about everything, hmm
We spend every day expressing negativity and dissatisfaction towards everything in our lives.

No time to give the Father thanks for all His love
We don't put aside any time to express appreciation towards God for all the love He provides us.

How, can we be so ungrateful?
It's difficult to understand how we can lack gratitude towards all the good things in our lives.

Nothing, just nothing ever seems to please us
No matter what, we are never satisfied or content with what we have.

It's time we stop complaining, yeah
It's time for us to put a stop to our constant complaining.

Full time, we stop complaining, hmm
We need to commit to never complaining again.

And take time out, to give the Father thanks
We need to make a deliberate effort to express gratitude towards God.

For all the lovely things He has given unto us, oh yeah
We should appreciate all the wonderful things we have been blessed with.

Birds to sing for us
We are fortunate enough to enjoy the delightful sound of birds singing for us.

Flowers to bloom for us
We have the privilege of witnessing beautiful flowers blossom for us.

Food for us to eat
We have access to nourishing food to sustain us.

And clothes for us to wear
We have clothing to protect us from the elements and keep us comfortable.

Come on, let's stop complaining, hmm-hmm
We need to encourage each other to stop complaining and focus on gratitude.

Every day, we are complaining about everything, hmm
Unfortunately, our habit of complaining persists every day.

Nothings good for us, everything is bad for us
We have convinced ourselves that nothing in our lives is good and everything is bad.

We are mad with ourselves and everybody else, yeah
Our dissatisfaction has caused us to be angry with ourselves and those around us.

All because, we're just not satisfied
Our lack of satisfaction is the cause of all our complaints and negativity.

There's no need for us complaining, yeah
There is absolutely no reason for us to continue complaining.

Hmm, let's stop complaining
We should make a concerted effort to end our complaining habit.

We have food to eat, oh yeah
Let's appreciate the fact that we have access to food to sustain us.

We have clothes to wear
We should be grateful for the clothing that we have to keep us warm and comfortable.

Birds and bees, flowers and trees, yeah
We should pay attention to the beauty of nature and be grateful for it.

It's time, we give the Father thanks, ooh yeah.
It's high time for us to dedicate time and effort towards giving thanks to God.
