In praise and thanksgiving, we lift up our voice
To the Creator, the one who gives us choice
We offer our gratitude, our hearts filled with love
To the God who is a dove, watching from above
But this act of praise, it is not in vain
For our Creator, He does not need our gain
He stands self-sufficient, in need of naught
Our gratitude, it\'s for us, it cannot be bought
It brings liberation, this act of praise
For it reminds us of our blessed days
In gratitude, we find joy and peace
Our hearts and souls, they find release
So let us celebrate this national feast
With hearts full of gratitude, let us feast
For in thanking the true God, we are set free
To live in love and praise, for all eternity. (\"Thanksgiving\") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
