Thank God

Recorded by hank williams, sr.
Words and music by fred rose
theres a road thats straight and narrow
That the saints have travelled on Paved with all the tribulations
Of the martyrs that have gone
If youre grateful for their victries
And for showin us the way
Then give thanks for all your blessins
Get on your knees and pray.
Thank God for evry flower and each tree
Thank God for all the mountains and the seas
Thank God for givin life to you and me Wherever you may be, thank god.
In this world of grief and sorrow
Filled with selfishness and greed
There remains the glory fountain
To supply our every need
You can find it in the temple
With a welcome on the door
But be sure to count your blessins
Before you ask for more.
Be forgivin to the wayward
Like the master told us to When he said forgive them father
For they know not what they do They would change their way of livin
If they could but understand
So remember theyre your brothers
They need a helpin hand.
