Lyrics

Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son


Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son


And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
Give thanks


Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son


Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son


And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"


And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us"
Give thanks


Look at what you've done (Look at what you've done)
Oh, we give thanks (Oh, we give thanks)
Look at all that you've done (Pour it out on you God)
We give thanks

Meaning & Inspiration

Give Thanks centers on gratitude for the gift of Jesus Christ and the goodness God has already shown. Its repeated call to give thanks turns praise into a steady response rather than a passing emotion. The grateful heart in the lyric recognizes God as holy and Christ as the decisive reason for thanksgiving. That focus gives the song a simple, congregational character while keeping its message firmly centered on grace.

The contrast between weakness and strength, poverty and riches, shows how faith can describe circumstances through the sufficiency of what the Lord has done. The words do not deny hardship; instead, they place need beside divine provision. This theme aligns with the biblical call to give thanks in every circumstance and with the description of Christ becoming poor so that others might become rich through him. The closing attention to all God has done extends the central refrain into personal remembrance, making gratitude both confession and worship.
