Thank You Jesus by Monica Scott is an upbeat song full of gratitude and all set to a catchy tune! It’s perfect to sing around Thanksgiving or really any time of year!
Fun fact, this song actually WASN’T written by Monica Scott!! Then why is her name all over it? It’s her daughter, Sofie Scott! Monica says:
This song was written by my 17 year old daughter. This is her 1st song for children that she has published!
Watch the children’s choir sing Thank You Jesus appropriately filmed outside an elementary school!
The lyrics are SO simple and repetitive, perfect for Primary age children to easily learn!
Thank you for my heart that’s beatin’
Thank you for the air I’m breathin’
Thank you for my faith that’s brought me here
Thank you for the beauty everywhere.
Thank you for the sunshine in the sky
For every low and every high
Thank you for this world that you created for us.
I thank you Jesus, I thank you Jesus, I thank you Jesus
Thank you for this joy I’m feelin’
Thank you for this life I’m livin’
Thank you for forgiveness when I sin for open arms that let me in.
Thank you for the rainbow after rain and for your love that stays the same
Thank you for this world that you created for us.
I thank you Jesus, I thank you Jesus, I thank you Jesus

NOTE: Because this song is not published by the Church, make sure to get your bishop’s approval before teaching it in singing time.
Teach actions to perform whenever keywords are sung such as:
Write the words “THANK YOU” in the center of the board. After you sing each line, have the Primary children write on the board what that particular line talks about being thankful for. Ideas include:
Have the children sit in a circle. Pass around a small object like a bean bag, laminated hot potato printable, bouncy ball, etc.
At the end of each verse, whoever is holding the item gets to say something they are thankful for. Repeat until all children have had a turn.
