Thanksgiving Day
I thank the oh Lord for the job that I hold,
For the house that keeps me out of the cold,
For the health that I've had all through the year,
For the friendships I hold so very dear.
I thank the too for a country so free,
For all of the blessings you give to me,
For making me strong so I can survive,
For putting the stars in your heavenly skies.
I count my blessings till my fingers are sore,
Then I look around and see so much more,
The moutians,the forests, the plains and the seas,
The health , love and happiness you give to me.
The hopes and happiness throughout our lands,
Rest entirely in your loving hands,
I thank you, I praise you, and just want to say,
Thank you Dear Lord, for Thanksgiving day.
