5-year-old Anabelle Rose, alongside her parents Dan and Amanda and her little sister, touches hearts with their heartfelt rendition of ‘Thank You Lord for Your Blessings on Me.’
God shows His love through simple moments, and nothing proves this better than a child’s grateful heart. Young Anabelle Rose, with her family by her side, shares a beautiful performance of a treasured hymn that reminds us to be grateful for life’s simple blessings – a roof over our heads, food on our table, and the precious gift of family.
‘Thank You Lord for Your Blessings on Me’ has touched many hearts in church pews and family rooms over the years. While we don’t know who first wrote this hymn, its message speaks right to our hearts. The song tells us that having Jesus in our lives means we have everything we need, even when the world might think we don’t have much.
The music video opens with peaceful views of rolling countryside. Then we meet 5-year-old Anabelle, who begins to sing with her sweet, clear voice:
While the world looks upon me, as I struggle along,
They say I have nothing, but they are so wrong!
In my heart, I’m rejoicing! How I wish they could see!
Thank You, Lord, for Your blessings on me!
As the chorus begins, her parents Dan and Amanda join in, creating a beautiful harmony:
There’s a roof up above me; I’ve a good place to sleep.
There’s food on my table, and shoes only feet!
You gave me Your love, Lord, and a fine family!
Thank You, Lord, for Your blessings on me!
The song continues with words that hit home for many of us:
I know I’m not wealthy, and these clothes are not new.
I don’t have much money, but Lord, I have You!
And that’s all that matters, though the world may not see!
Thank You, Lord, for Your blessings on me!
What makes this video special is how natural it feels. Anabelle’s young voice leads the way while her family supports her. Their country setting fits perfectly with the song’s message about finding joy in life’s simple gifts.
Their performance brings new life to this old hymn. Through their singing, we see that giving thanks isn’t about comparing what we have to others or wishing for more things. Instead, it’s about seeing the good gifts God has already given us. Even little Anabelle understands this big truth – that having Jesus makes us truly rich.
God gives us so many gifts each day – the love of family, a place to call home, food to eat, and His constant presence in our lives. Watching Anabelle and her family praise God for these simple blessings reminds us to look at our own lives with thankful hearts.
Their song encourages us to focus on what we have instead of what we lack. In this world that always pushes us to want more, we can find real peace in knowing that having Jesus in our lives gives us everything we truly need.
