“I will enter his gates with Thanksgiving in my heart. I will enter His courts with praise! I will say this is the day that the Lord had made, I will rejoice for he has made me glad! He has made me glad! He had made me glad! I will rejoice for he had made me glad!” ~L. Von Brethorst
I love this song, it brings back memories of my youth, of days when I was in high school and youth group. Moving ahead a lifetime, it’s a song that still bring joy to my heart when I worship Him. When times are hard, we need to make the choice to rejoice instead of worry, sing His praises instead of complain about hardships. Do you choose to be glad instead of unhappy? Start singing his praises and watch your life turn around.

Nice Shari! “I will enter his gates with Thanksgiving in my heart. I will enter His courts with praise!” Interesting, that verse popped into my mind earlier this morning!

Oh I remember singing that song growing up. I haven’t heard it in so long, brings back many memories. Miss some of those older songs.
Love your list! 421 is my fave! 🙂
