Daniel thanks God

In chapter 2 of Daniel, God reveals the meaning of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream to Daniel, which Daniel then is to relay to the King. Daniel then proceeds to offer a prayer of thanks to God. This prayer, which I copy and paste below (verses 20-23, KJV), offers a nice, general purpose prayer of thanksgiving that any of us can use in any circumstance.
Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding: He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him. I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might.
