November Praise and Thanks Song Series. Today’s is a bit different but I am grateful for a God Who can heal the unrest of our nation’s cities. Today’s hymn was written by Frank Mason North in 1903 and set to music by Beethoven.
November Thanks and Praise Series. Grateful for the beauty of the sky. Lyrics are from Phil Wickham’s song Messiah/ You’re Beautiful”, written in 2007.
November Series. The lyrics for the hymn “Thank You, Lord” were written by Seth Sykes, with the chorus written in 1940 and the full verses added in 1945. His wife, Bessie Sykes, wrote the music for the hymn. I hadn’t ever seen the verses for this one; our church in Santa Rosa back in the day only ever sang the chorus.
“Some thank the Lord for friends and home
For mercies sure and sweet
But I would praise Him for His grace
Thank You Lord for saving my soul
Thank you Lord for making me whole
Thank you Lord for giving to me
Thy great salvation so rich and free
Some thank Him for the flowers that grow
Some for the stars that shine
My heart is filled with joy and praise
Because I know He’s mine.”
November’s Gratitude and Praise through Song Series. Today’s hymn will get those who have been in churches for years humming along. “At Calvary” written by Wm. R. Newell after a Sunday School class in 1895.
I decided to change up my Gratitude Series a bit for November by using verses from Christian hymns old or new that express thanks or praise. Today’s is in praise of God’s Word. Written in 1867 by William Walsham How. Titled “O Word of God Incarnate.”
Starting November with a Gratitude Series.
