Heavenly father, I come to you on the blessed Thanksgiving Day

Thanking you for bringing all my family together once again in this very special way

For keep them safe from all harm as they travel day to day

Just seeing them all, puts a smile upon my grateful face.

Lord, please keep in mind the less fortunate on a day like today

Those who are down on their luck, no food, or a decent place to stay

Let them know that everything is going to be okay

That things will prevail and that they are blessed just to see another day.

Lord, deliver those who don't know the true meaning of today

Who are stuck up in greed and afraid to pray

Running away from the truth, hiding with no means of coming forward

Pray that they spread the love and the wealth to those who need it the most.

Lord, I just thank you for being who you are

For caring so much and so effortlessly

For treating all your children the same
Even when we don't do it ourselves, which is such a shame.

Thank you for first loving me, during those times I didn't love myself

Those times that I looked to you and no one else

You assured me and confirmed my confidence

And me living for you, is no coincidence.
