Thanksgiving

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.
