A Prayer for Thanksgiving

Dear Lord,
We come to you this joyful day,
to fold our hands in prayer –
to acknowledge all the gifts you gave,
and the blessings we did share.

We thank you for our freedom,
and those who defend it so –
that we might live in blessed peace,
with a love you have bestowed.

We thank you for our families and friends,
and for each day throughout the year –
as you graced our tables with plenty,
and your presence always there.

We thank you for the comfort,
when some of our days were sad –
because you gave the greatest gift,
your grace to make us glad.

We ask you to remain with us,
on this Thanksgiving Day –
to thank you especially for the gift of faith,
that you have sent our way!
