SSA, flute (or oboe), piano
Scored for flute or oboe, piano and SSA with divisi chorus, We Thank Thee is fun, has nice movement in the voices, and a great rhythm in 5/4 throughout. The flute accompaniment accentuates the voices like an exclamation point. Text may be changed in the last verse exchanging the word "will" for "love" or "care," for the sensitive listener.
