Background song is "We Thank You Lord"
Thankfulness For What You Could Not Afford
Suppose God charged us for the rain,
Or put a price on a songbird's strain
Of music, the dawn, mist on the plain,
How much would autumn landscapes cost,
Or a window etched with winter's frost,
And the rainbow's glory so quickly lost?
Suppose the people had to pay
To see the sunset's crimson play
And the magic stairs on the Milky Way.
Suppose it was fifty cents a night
To watch the pale moon's silvery light,
Or watch a gull in graceful flight.
How much, I wonder, would it be worth
To smell the good, brown fragrant earth
In spring? The miracle of birth!
How much do you think people would pay
For a baby's laugh at the close of day?
Suppose God charged us for them, I say.
Suppose we paid to look at the thrills,
For the rippling mountain hills,
Or the mating song of the whippoorwills,
Or the curving breakers of the sea,
For grace, and beauty, and majesty.
And all these things God gives us free.
