Thanksgiving Prayer

May we be thankful for all we have,
For the ability to love and laugh.
For the ability to cry,
 
For every bite we have to eat,
For life itself,

For each heartbeat.

For our shelter,
For warmth and heat,
For our children, who bring us joy.

For our soldiers, to come back home.
For peaceful results in lands far and near.

For those who have gone

To your Heavenly Home,

May our actions and words

Show our love for them has grown.

For God's promise,
For his perfect love,
For his kingdom here and to come.

For two strong legs,
For two strong hands,
For the capacity,
To understand.

For all that you have made us to be.

For hope,
For love,
For faith,

For all this and so much more, we are truly thankful. Amen.
