Ray Boltz- Thank You

This musical has a sort of synthesized bell sound in the background that repeats in quarter notes with a simple chordal structure through a good portion of the piece and is then taken over by the piano parts. This background gives the piece a never ending upbeat angelic quality for the entirety of the piece. The accompaniment and vocal melody are very simple and repetitive. The piano or bells play one chord and then Ray Boltz sings a few notes off that chord before changing. The simplicity of the song is enough to be beautiful but also to draw attention to the important words about how the greatest gift we can give to other people on earth is to share the love of Jesus Christ. The music is soft and pensive as the words are reflective and then loud and exclamatory in the chorus part, saying “thank you for giving to the Lord.”
