Nichole Nordeman - Gratitude Lyrics
Send some rain, would You send some rain?
'Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud?
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down
But maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You
How to bless the very sun that warms our face
If You never send us rain
Daily bread, give us daily bread
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight
Wrap us up and warm us through
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs
Let us slumber safe from danger's view this time
Or maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
A lesson learned to hunger after You
That a starry sky offers a better view
If no roof is overhead
And if we never taste that bread
Oh, the differences that often are between
Everything we want and what we really need
So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace
Move our hearts to hear a single beat
Between alibis and enemies tonight
Or maybe not, not today
Peace might be another world away
And if that's the case...
We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to trust in You
That we are blessed beyond what we could ever dream
In abundance or in need
And if You never grant us peace...
But, Jesus, would You please...

Nichole Nordeman Gratitude Comments
Thank you Lord for your provision 😭🙏🏼 will be forever grateful 😭
This song made me cry because it reminds me of how strong I’ve been and how I’ve smiled throughout the good and bad times
I was brave and Kept faith
Sang this in church today; some people cried.
A friend of my wife was dying in hospital. My wife was also in the same ward. She played wee Jean her favourite song and this song. Jean said to My wife, they say I won't reach Christmas. Jean died a few days later. 😢 She's gone to be with her Lord !
Thank you God for everything! You gave us freewill. No matter what we choose. you are there, all the time, blessing us despite our blindness and shortcomings!
My wife, got a fellow Christian and patient, who was dying of cancer, to listen to this. Grace came into that ward. Jean didn't make Christmas but my wife will always remember her, every Wednesday, feeding the homeless.
my dad is dying and suffering it's hard to find gratitude but there is gratitude for the love he had for all of us as we grow up and you'll soon get to be with Jesus so gratitude is in my heart
This is for wee Jean who died of cancer, right before Christmas. She spent her Wednesdays feeding the homeless. My wife met her in hospital, when she was in and they shared a love for Jesus, laughter and Christian songs, like this one. Love you Jean. God's looking after you now in heaven. But we miss you. :(
So Beautiful💕
absoulutely beautiful!
Suffering my 3rd miscarriage

What a beautiful song, brought me to tears. So incredibly thankful for all that God has given me and all the many lessons along the way.❤
Depends on how you look at ot
Thank you Lord!! Thank you even when sometimes can't understand the why and reasons 🙏💕💖I know you are FAITHFUL and GOOD FATHER!!
Give thanks to the Lord with gratitude love your post
We are never satisfied but He provides just we need.
Oh I love this song Nichole Nordeman is such a brilliant singer and songwriter.
Gratitude....how sweet
The depth of His love and peace are priceless when you lift your soul in gratitude...Thanks Nicole.
Grace is heaven sent
Sometimes it's difficult to offer gratitude when you're struggling.
It is sometimes...but God understands, believe me. He won't love you any less.
beautiful :)
Dear Lord..peace that passeth understanding...please
indeed i give thanks to God for everything he has done for me and is still doing
Possibly one of the most beautiful song of praise ever! My daughter sang this one night before the evenings sermon. The Pastor said "Well...how am I to preach after hearing that?" He went straight to the invitation and several people gave their hearts and lives to Christ that night. May times these songs are written with the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and He will use them to point us toward Christ. Sometimes these are the sermons themselves. On that night, God used one of His 14 year old, 85 pound servants to deliver His word!!! How awesome is He!!!!
This song was played in my church service a few weeks back as a contemplation after the sermon. The words really spoke to me as I've recently been struggling with ill health and ended up in hospital a few times. I keep reminding myself how much god has given me and though he may not take away the physical pain how his spirit sits with me bringing comfort through grace. Part of me is scared to ask for healing in case the prayer remains unanswered and i don't expect a miracle but whatever he provides this song reminds me to be grateful in the good times, the bad times and everything in between.
I cried reading your story...
Jen Griffiths ❤️ god bless you
Beautiful song ♡
What a beautiful song. Thank you Nicole
Beautiful. This song always brings tears to my eyes. God is good.
Gratitude works like Magic. It instantly changes from Negative to Positive Mindset and It also brings more of what we dwell on.
Just FYI, I am using an iPhone app called "Thanks A Lot" by Lokesh Hanumappa.
This is really cool app, because I can express my Gratitude across all the key areas of my life like Physical, Mental, Emotional, Financial, Relationships, Professional and Spiritual.It reminds me? at a set? time and I can share my blessings to my friends and family too.
Thanks A Lot For U
I dunno why i feel sad when listening to this
Thumb up!
2 peeps obviously have no fuckin' gratitude!
Just got to hear Gracia Burnham the other day. She shared this song. She said that while her and Martin with in the jungle with the Abou Sayiff terrorists, they prayed these things and when she was rescued, her friend gave her the words to this song. So appropriate. It is so humbling to know that even in the worst of times we can still praise YHVH for His provision. Whatever it is......HalleluYAH!
Love this!
Jesus grant us peace <3
A beautifully made video. My first time hearing this song, and this simple video completely highlighted the lyrics well. Thanks for this (: God bless you.
I love Jesus!! He heals us <3 Give thanks to him!
