Program Notes:

Henry Smith wrote “Give Thanks” in 1978, soon after graduating from seminary.  He struggled with a degenerative eye disease while in seminary and would soon lose the use of his eyes completely.  But his physical affliction did not dampen his fervor for God.  One inspiration for this song was II Corinthians 8:9, which says “…though [Jesus] was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.”
