Thankfulness.

Ascensus gratiarum, est descensus gratiæ

In thee I have my being, live and move,
Who art the King of glory, and of love:
From thy rich storehouse of delight and pleasure
I do receive my joy, my gifts, and treasure:
Who gives me bread to strengthen me, and wine
To glad my heart? who made my soul divine?
Who gave me wisdom, or spiritual eyes,
Good to discern from bad, and Truth from lyes?
Who doth direct my ways, but thou my King,
Which art the Fountain whence all vertues spring?
What shall I render thee? I have no more
Than what's thine own, thy riches are my store:
If thou (sweet Lord) wilt not my Heart disdain,
Thou gav'st it me, I give it thee again.
