A Prayer of Thanksgiving



We thank thee for our daily bread,
For faith by which the soul is fed,
For burdens given us to bear,
For help that lifts the heart's despair.
We thank thee, Lord, for eyes to see,
The truth that makes, and keeps us free:
For faults -- and for the strength to mend them,
For dreams -- and courage to defend them.
We have so much to thank thee for,
Dear Lord, we beg but one boon more:
Peace in the hearts of all men living,
Peace in the whole world on this Thanksgiving.
~Joseph Auslander~



A THANKSGIVING PRAYER

Our Father, we thank Thee for this food
That lies before us.
We thank Thee we are able to reach out
And touch the hand
Of one next to us.
We thank thee for the many things
Which we so often take for granted,
For we can hear and see and walk.
Help us to always come to Thee
For confidence,
And courage,
And hope.
And we thank Thee on this
Thanksgiving day
For the many blessings we have enjoyed
During the past year,
And may we continue
To receive Thy blessings
During the coming year.
Amen
