The man that wrote this song, had many ailments, but he was still thankful for what the Lord had done for him.
Story behind the song
Bro Billy was a man with many ailments, i know my pastor has told me he had a humped back, and limped.
But he was still thankful for what the Lord had done, and was doing in his life.
Lyrics
I just want to tell you,
I'm Thankful for all that you have done,
for the stars and the moonlight,
and the setting sun,
When my work on earth is through,
I'm coming home to be with you,
Just wanted to tell you,
I"m thankful that's all.
