I THANK THEE, GOD by ELAINE M. LIVINGSTON

First Line: FOR LIGHT AND LIFE, FOR STRENGTH AND WORK
Last Line: I THANK THEE, GOD.
Subject(s): GOD; LIFE;

For light and life, for strength and work,
For solemn hours and days of mirth,
For shine and shower, for death and birth,
I thank thee, God.

For pleasant paths, for thorns that lurk,
For those who scorn, for friends of worth,
For loves of old refound on earth,
I thank thee, God.
