We thank God for the sun
We thank God for the moon
We thank God for the morn
And for the night and noon.
We thank Him for our treasures
We thank Him for our toys
We thank him for our pleasures
As also for our joys
But do we remember
To thank him for the gift
Which earns for us
Admiration swift?
Do we thank him at all
For making us physically strong
For being hale and hearty
For having no defect for so long?
What about the lakhs
Who have walked on Life’s tracks
Without a limb or eye
Does it not make us cry?
Those who cannot see
Those who cannot hear
And yet always are
Found in good cheer?
Should we not learn
A lesson from their acts
To be bold and brave
And face Life’s facts
Should we also not
Thank God for being kind
For letting us possess
A calm and rational mind
Clearly its our duty
To pay the respects due
And to tell Him with all our hearts-
“We’ll always love and serve you”

Agreed. Great poem
thank you so much
So grateful you wrote this, most tend to thank God for when He helps us
Sometimes people don't realize that these devastating occurrences,as a punishment for the wickedness of all humankind
Yes we do tend to be ungrateful, and rarely thank those who help us. We selfishly seek the Lord only when in dire need
Dont forget to thank your god for earthquakes and tsunamis, famines and plagues - god being omnipotent is therefore responsible. But there's the pathetic rhetorical excuse brainwashed christians come up with that it's all the fault of the wickedness of mankind... earthquakes and tsunamis oh yes, brainwashing serves them well.
my dear friend, earthquakes and tsunamis occur because we do not conserve Nature the way we should. I am always thankful that God has spared us from the calamities, and helped us overcome them, and have learnt to be peaceful within ourselves. Do try it - it works
Perhaps you would like to explain how any activity of mankind can create an earthquake or tsunami? Or even the extiction of dinosaurs when a meteor hit the earth... your god did of course create the dinosaurs too... were they sinning or something too?
