THANKSGIVING
written by Donna (Ensign) Woods
Reasons to give thanks.....every day.
1000 gifts along the way
Thankful for blessings...yours and mine
Sprinkled through sands of time.
Blessings great and small
Thanking God for them all....
Thankful for family and friend
Sunshine and rain the Heavens send.
The seasons of each year
...For laughter....and even the tear.
A home for safe and restful sleep
Knowing the Lord shall guard and keep.
Homes for comfort and pleasure
Creating memories for hearts to treasure.
Thankful for turkey and country hams
Pumpkin pie ....and candied yams....
Family, food and fun...
Kissed by falls gentle sun.
Along river's edges we meander
Drinking in Autumn splendor.
So much beauty all around....
Wrapped in aroma, sight and sound.
Thanking God for His love so pure
And the many trials He helps us endure.
Whether life is painful....or happy and sweet
It's time to give thanks at the Lord's feet.
Living in the land of "milk and honey"
....Blessings are not about wealth and money.....
It's about joy only the heart can know
And feeling loved wherever we go.
Knowing we are never alone
God hears each prayerful moan
Remember.......His Son suffered and died
for you and me.
We have much to be thankful for
