Thank God for church!

This might be read by numerous voices, responsively or by a single voice.

Remember to pause and focus on firstly each attribute of the Spirit and secondly each specific gratitude.

After each refrain, take time to consider specific people, activities, worship words, prayers, songs, sermons, and other aspects of church for which you are grateful.
