Let us join hands around the table
On this Thanksgiving Day
Giving thanks to the Creator
Each in our own way
Let the peace at this table
Spread like ripples in the water
To give comfort and hope
To every mother and father, son and daughter
Let us give thanks to the Spirit
That heals and mends
To all here gathered
And dear absent friends
Lead us to paths
That are wise and kind
Nourish us always
In body and mind
Guide us with patience
Pick us up when we fall
That we may do likewise
With mercy for all
Let us all share
The gifts we receive
To make this world better
Before we must leave
Teach us to think before we do
And then only nobly act
Let us always remember
To keep this good Pact
We humbly give Thanks
For all that we have
To work and to learn
To sing and to laugh
May we look into our hearts
And our prayer be sincere
Let us remember to give thanks
Every day of the year
