Glad Thanksgiving

I thank God every time I’m reminded of our little community here. May your giving thanks this week generate much gladness for you and those you encounter. I’m grateful for you.

“For the beauty of the earth
For the glory of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies

Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night
Hill and vale and tree and flower
Sun and moon and stars of light

Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and friends above
For all gentle thoughts and mild

Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of praise

For Thy Church which evermore
Lifteth holy hands above
Offering up on every shore
Her pure sacrifice of love

Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise”
