And I Want To Thank You
Words and music by Jeanne Loehnis Copyright 2003 Jeanne Loehnis Appleton, Wisconsin And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You for everything You are. Yes I want to thank You, Lord. Always You’re my shining star! Whether I’m home or far away each day I wake and as I pray I am filled with Your Love, the guiding Presence; You will light my way! And I want to thank You. And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You from the bottom of my heart. Yes I want to thank You, Lord. Each day is a fresh start! I have wandered far down many byways, got turned around and headed back; And yet through it all You’ve been beside me, never did I lack! And I want to thank You. And I want to thank you, Lord. Thank You for living here in me. Yes I want to thank You, Lord. That with Your eyes I see! I see Your glory on the earth, in every human soul such worth. Yes within each of us Your seed is planted; our lives give You birth. And I want to thank You.

Gratitude
Words and music by Jeanne Loehnis Copyright 2003 Jeanne Loehnis Appleton, Wisconsin Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. When challenge is concealing all things I would call appealing gratitude can be revealing: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. Despite all that I'm doing I'm not winning but I'm losing. Gratitude won't stop infusing: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. When I let go of worry and the endless hurry scurry gratitude comes with a flurry: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. As I trust in the process, use the steps to cut my losses, gratitude shows me the progress: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. When fear is overwhelming and I feel as though I'm drowning gratitude upturns my frowning: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. No matter my emotion, when sweet gratitude’s in motion I am one with the rich notion: All is well. Gratitude, gratitude, it's not a feeling it’s an attitude. Each day is mine to focus not on ancient hocus pocus but a daily grateful notice: All is well.

I'm Gonna Give It Away
Words and music by Jeanne Loehnis
Copyright 2003 Jeanne Loehnis Appleton, Wisconsin
When the road you walk seems all up hill.
You’re tired and can’t go on.
Walk with me by my side until
Love gives you strength to run!
‘Cause I’m gonna give it away.
I’m gonna give it away.
I feel God’s Love inside me now.
I’m gonna give it away.
I’m gonna share this Love.
I’ll be God’s Love for you!
In the times of sadness, pain, and strife
When your precious heart does bleed.
Come, my friend, anytime, you’ll see:
Love answers every need.
And I’m gonna give it away.
I’m gonna give it away.
I feel God’s Love inside me now.
And I’m gonna give it away.
I’m gonna share this Love.
I’ll be God’s Love for you!

Praise God Every Day
Words and music by Jeanne Loehnis Copyright 2003 Jeanne Loehnis Appleton, Wisconsin Sing God’s praises loud and clear. Everyone will stop to hear. With your friends now shout and cheer. Praise God every day. Praise God on the flute and drum. If you choose then you can hum. There’s a part for everyone. Praise God with a song. Praise God as you walk around. Move, but do not make a sound. March now, as your feet they pound. Praise God with your feet. Praise God even when you dance. Come now! You can take the chance. With God never say you can’t. Praise God as you move. Praise God in the morning light. Each and every noon and night. And before you start a fight. Praise God all the time. Praise God in your Sunday best. When you’re dressed to take a test. Even if your hair’s a mess. Praise God as you are. Praise God anywhere you go. Everyone God’s Love you’ll show. Shout God’s praises high and low. Praise God everywhere. Praise God when you pet your cat. When you watch her chase a rat. Even as she swats a gnat. Praise God for your pets. Praise God when you’re feeling mad. When you’re down and when you’re sad. God will make your heart feel glad. Praise God in your need. Praise God when you help a friend. To his needs you can attend. Then with prayer God’s Love you’ll send. Praise God as you help. Praise God when you’re with your Dad. When your sister’s acting bad. Even if your brother’s mad. Praise God at your home. Praise God with your favorite sport. On the field or on the court. When the ball’s been thrown too short. Praise God at the game. Praise God with your inner voice. As you listen to each choice. Let your spirit now rejoice. Praise God from your soul.
