Thanksgiving Day
The day proclaimed as Thanksgiving
Comes to us each November
A day to count our blessings
A day to recall and remember
All that God to us has given
The great and the small
The things we take for granted
God has given to us them all
Too God above I am thankful
For all I have received
When I begin to count my blessings
I simply cannot believe
My beautiful loving wife
A helpmate always by my side
Our warm and simple home
Where we safely within abide
My two little sisters
My precious loving daughter
Memories of my mother
The presence of my father
A bounty of food upon my table
Work for my hands
The freedoms I enjoy
The beauty of this great land
The love of family
Mans most treasured possession
The truth of Gods word
The promise of a resurrection
So much to be thankful for
Though thanks I do not oft enough say
Shouldent everyday we are given
Be Thanksgiving Day?
