A Thansgiving Prayer

If I would have created this blog earlier, I would have posted this Thanksgiving Prayer in time for folks to use it. If you don't already have one, here it is. Or - save it for next year.

Thanksgiving Day Prayer

We thank you, God, our grace, for being alive, tomorrow and today,
for this earth, for bread and light, for the people around us,
today, yesterday and every day.

We thank you for our lives here and now, lives sometimes difficult but full of joy.

Blessed are you, Creator of all that is, blessed are you for giving us
freedom and life, the light of our eyes and the air we breathe.

We ask your blessings now upon this food and upon our lives,
for we are all the work of your hands,
and we ask this as we ask all things, through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
