The Thanksgiving Song

Grateful for each hand we hold

Gathered round this table.

From far and near we travel home,

Blessed that we are able.

Grateful for this sheltered place

With light in every window,

Saying "Welcome, welcome share this feast

Come in away from sorrow." 

Father, mother, daughter, son

Neighbor, friend and friendless;

All together everyone in the gift of loving kindness. 

Grateful for what's understood,

And all that is forgiven;

We try so hard to be good,

To lead a life worth living. 

Father, mother, daughter, son,

Neighbor, friend and friendless,

All together everyone, let grateful days be endless. 

Grateful for each hand we hold

Gathered round this table.-Mary Chapin Carpenter 

Dear Friends, Taking a moment from preparations,

to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving. 

Among my blessings I count many of my friends I met here

through blogging.  

Thank you for your friendship and kindness.  I am grateful.

Enjoy this beautiful day.

Love, Penny
