I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: / Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving: / For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.

Do not wait until all seems lost to look to God, it is in the times when all is well that we ought to be praising Him and thanking Him and drawing closer to Him with each passing moment.
