This Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving as we gather together
As families to give thanks and to eat
May we make it our highest endeavor
To celebrate marriage and all that is sweet

Let us hold our dear children and express to them love
Hoping for their future let us teach what we believe
Then let us pray that they may hear us speak to Father above
And make it a beautiful day from dawn until eve

Let us remember our parents who have since passed
And realize they left us as their living legacy
Let us cherish their good lives with gratitude vast
And get out their pictures for all then to see
