Dear Lord, we gather here today
With friends and family too
Ever mindful of the fact
That all blessings come from You
We ask that You forgive us, Lord
For transgressions of the past
And trust that You will always be
Our constant that ever lasts
Your heart is kind and gracious
And so quick to understand
Even when we stray from You
You offer an outstretched hand
So as we celebrate this day
We're grateful that we are living
In a country where we have the right
To a peaceful and blessed Thanksgiving
