In our everyday living we can see
That we have to buy things and nothing is free
Yet always we have to count our blessings
Realize what God has given you and me.
Things that make us live the best of life,
Talents that generate work
Wisdom to understand grief and strife
Blessings a hundredfold.
All these and God asks nothing in return.
But what do we give back?
It is our conscience to share the packs
Not just money
Neither much honey
But a bunch of good deeds, labor, and love.
We could help a neighbor,
And share some time,
Abounding possibilities
Even a happy face, kind word that chimes.
These are ways we can return something borrowed from God,
And say “Thank you.”
