Thanksgiving Prayer
For
flowers so beautiful and sweet,
For
friends and clothes and food to eat,
For
gracious hours, for work and play,
We thank
Thee this Thanksgiving Day.
For
father's care and mother's love,
For blue
sky and clouds above,
For
springtime and for autumn gay,
We thank
Thee this Thanksgiving Day.
For all
Thy gifts so good and fair,
Bestowed
so freely everywhere,
Give us
grateful hearts, we pray,
To thank
Thee this Thanksgiving Day.
