For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food,
For love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness sends.

Thanksgiving Day Prayer
Father all powerful,
Your gifts of love are countless,
and Your goodness infinite.
On Thanksgiving Day we come before You,
with gratitude for Your kindness:
open our hearts to concern for our fellow men and women,
so that we may share Your gifts in loving service.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son,
Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen

Thanksgiving Day Prayer
For flowers that bloom about our feet;
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet;
For song of bird, and hum of bee;
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!

Thanksgiving Day Prayer
Thanks for inviting us
To spend Thanksgiving with you
With good food and good company
The time really flew.
Thanks for the welcome
And your time, preparing the meal;
Thanksgiving to you, and for you
Is the thanksgiving we feel

Cute Thanksgiving Day Prayer
Lord, We humbly ask Thy blessing
on the turkey and the dressing,
on the yams and cranberry jelly,
and the pickles from the deli.
Bless the apple pie and tea,
bless each and every calorie.
Let us enjoy Thanksgiving dinner.
Tomorrow we can all get thinner.
For all Thy help along the way
we're thankful this Thanksgiving Day.
We're thankful too, for all our dear ones,
for all the far away and near ones.
Although we may be far apart,
we're together in my heart.
Keep us in Thy loving care,
This is my Thanksgiving prayer.
P.S. Anyone who wishes
may help with the dishes.

Thanksgiving Day Prayer
Oh, the Earth is good to me,
And so I thank the Earth,
For giving me the things I need,
The sun and the rain and the apple seed.
The Earth is good to me,
Johnny Appleseed, Amen.

Be careful for nothing, but in every thing,
by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving,
let your requests be made known unto God.
