Isaiah 42 verse 10 says
Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise from the ends of the earth
So, in our Harvest service this morning, we wrote some new verses to update the old song ‘Thank you Lord for this fine day’. We’ve put them on the internet so that people all over the world can see our ‘thank you’ to God.
Thank you Lord for this fine day
Thank you Lord for this fine day
Thank you Lord for this fine day
Right where we are.
Thank you Lord for birthdays…
Thank you Lord for food to eat…
Thank you Lord for water to drink…
Thank you Lord for the whole wide world…
Thank you Lord for chocolate milkshake…
Thank you Lord for strawberry icecream…

- Prepare your heart before leading – what is your mood? Are you ready?

But you don’t really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Lines 5 and 6 here are matched by the chord changes described in the lyrics.
