CANTUS: Thankful Heart by Paul Williams

Recorded live at Westminster Hall in Minneapolis on December 9, 2023.
Thankful Heart by Paul Williams
"It’s the season to be jolly and joyous,
With a burst of pleasure, we feel it arrive.
It’s the season when the saints can employ us,
To spread the news about peace and to keep love alive.
With a thankful heart, with an endless joy,
With a growing family, every girl and boy
Will be nephew and niece to me,
Will bring love, hope and peace to me.
Yes and every night will end, and every day will start
With a grateful prayer and a thankful heart.
With an open smile and with open doors,
I will bid you welcome, what is mine is yours.
With a glass raised to toast your health,
And a promise to share the wealth.
I will sail a friendly course, file a friendly chart,
On a sea of love and a thankful heart.
Life is like a journey, who knows when it ends?
Yes and if you need to know the measure of a man,
You simply count his friends.
Stop and look around you. The glory that you see
Is born again each day, don't let it slip away.
How precious life can be!
With a thankful heart that is wide awake
I do make this promise: every breath I take
Will be used now to sing your praise,
And to beg you to share my days.
With a loving guarantee that even if we part,
I will hold you close in a thankful heart.
I will hold you close in a thankful heart."
