In this Thanksginving season, this song of David is truly appropriate. We can take no good thing for granted, but in everything give thanks to God. Chad gives a beautiful meditation on this passage, cautioning us from getting tied down with the cares of this world, when the true eternal riches are ours forever in Christ. Jeff Anderson sings "Tied Down".

Lyrics to "Tied Down"
When I was a child
I ran after things I cherished
Things I desired
Led to my soul despairing
When I was lost in my own little town
You sought me
You found me
You came to me, when I was tied down
Chorus:
I was tied down
By my own hands
Charms had their way
I was enslaved
I was tied down
You untangled me
To Your great name
Glory and honor Lord for eternity
To Your great name
Glory and honor Lord for eternity
Your yoke is easy your burden is light
You Opened my eyes then You gave me sight
When I was lost in my own little town
You sought me
You found me
You came to me, when I was tied down
And I will sing your praise
In my heart I’ll give you thanks
In my heart I seek your presence
And I live in Your love and grace
Under Your mercy
Under Your mercy
