For this we give Thanks – v2

For this day and for this hour,
for the joys of family, and
time to spend together
for the love we share
this Thanksgiving Day
Across the miles,
when we are apart,
and for the closeness
we share in our hearts

Oh grant the world
a bit of peace
this day of rest and
this day of grace
May we pause and
think again
of the God that provides,
sustains, and guides us all
and give God thanks
