Lyrics
In everything we give thanks to You Lord
In everything we give thanks to You Lord
For You are loving faithful
Jesus so wonderful
And it's good to give thanks to You Lord
You told us in Your Word to always trust You
You told us to love one another every day
But above all we do we give back to You
A heart of thanksgiving and praise

Meaning & Inspiration
In Everything We Give Thanks is a concise song of gratitude directed to Jesus. Its central refrain treats thanksgiving not as a response limited to easy circumstances, but as a continuing act of worship. The reasons named in the lyrics are rooted in the character of the Lord: he is loving, faithful, and worthy of praise. That emphasis keeps the song focused on who God is rather than on a list of blessings received.
The second section connects gratitude with obedience to the Word. Trust in God and daily love for others appear alongside the offering of a thankful heart, presenting praise as part of a faithful life. The title and refrain closely echo the instruction in 1 Thessalonians to give thanks in every circumstance, while the language about loving one another reflects the command of Jesus to his disciples. In this way, thanksgiving becomes both spoken praise and a posture expressed through trust, love, and devotion.
