Greet the Day with Thanksgiving and Praise

This is the day the Lord has made

Each new day is a clean slate

A chance to begin again

Greet the day with thanksgiving and praise

Don't worry

It gets you nowhere

Make a choice

To choose faith instead

Awaken and welcome the new day

Whether the sun is shining

Or the rain is falling

Greet the day with gratitude

Life is good

All the time

Every day

In every way

Instead of complaining

Choose gratitude

Instead of worry

Choose joy and happiness

When troubles come your way

Don't dwell on them

Mom always said

This too shall pass

From the rising of the sun in the East

To its setting in the West

Beauty is everywhere

Just look around you

Be grateful to God

For the sun's rays

For the moon's light

For beautiful sights

As you pass through the day

THINK before you speak

Speak what is true and helpful

Inspiring and necessary and kind

Learn about love

By watching children

They love deeply

And forgive easily

Making a living is important

But don't forget

To take the time

To make a life

Each person is unique

Created with special gifts

Be who God meant you to be

Set the world on fire

Take time each day

To be still

And take delight

In the simple pleasures of life

Let your love shine through

In all you say and do

It sounds so easy

It's all up to you

For life is beautiful

Despite the challenges

No matter the worries

You have but one life to live

Give thanks to God each day

For the blessings He gives

More than we deserve

Given freely with love

Share the love

Find joy in the simple things

Love makes the world go around

Pay it forward and pass it on

At the end of the day

Give thanks for the blessings

Faith, family, friends

Let go of your failures

Each day is a gift

It's here and then it's gone

You'll never have it again

Embrace the day and enjoy
