I thank my God

  1.   8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.
  2.   4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;
  3.   18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all:
  4.   3 I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,
  5.   4 I thank my God, making mention of thee always in my prayers,
  6.   7 Now, these are the words which he said unto the people concerning the matter: I thank my God, my beloved people, that our great God has in goodness sent these our brethren, the Nephites, unto us to preach unto us, and to convince us of the traditions of our wicked fathers.
      8 And behold, I thank my great God that he has given us a portion of his Spirit to soften our hearts, that we have opened a correspondence with these brethren, the Nephites.
      9 And behold, I also thank my God, that by opening this correspondence we have been convinced of our sins, and of the many murders which we have committed.
      10 And I also thank my God, yea, my great God, that he hath granted unto us that we might repent of these things, and also that he hath forgiven us of those our many sins and murders which we have committed, and taken away the guilt from our hearts, through the merits of his Son.
  7.   37 Now my brethren, we see that God is mindful of every people, whatsoever land they may be in; yea, he numbereth his people, and his bowels of mercy are over all the earth. Now this is my joy, and my great thanksgiving; yea, and I will give thanks unto my God forever. Amen.
