Thankful to God - 2

thankful to God
not something less
our bounty, our gifts
not from ourselves

thankful to God
for life, for our blessings
not something of our works
by grace alone we have these
by grace we have our life

thankful to God
for Christ, for his sacrifice
choosing the cross for us
taking on our stain

thankful to God
for Christ, his resurrection
victory over death
for us a heavenly mansion
