Joshua Aaron's 'Give Thanks (Hodu)' is a Messianic worship song recorded live at the Tower of David in Jerusalem. The song blends Hebrew and English lyrics, centering on gratitude to God for His enduring love and faithfulness. It describes God as light, refuge, peace, and hope, and calls listeners to bow in adoration and thanksgiving. The bridge invites the hungry, thirsty, broken, and merciful to find rest in God. The repeated chorus echoes Psalm 136:1, declaring God's goodness and everlasting love. The song is a joyful expression of praise and trust in God's character.

Verse 1

He is the light unto the nations

He is our refuge in the storm

He is our peace in tribulation

He is our hope, the Holy One

Here we bow in adoration

Giving thanks for all He?s done

Here we stand in revelation

We are redeemed, redeemed by the Son

All who are hungry, all who are thirsty

Come from the east and the west

All who are broken, all who need mercy

Drink from the Fountain of rest

For He is good, and His love endures
