Happy Thanksgiving

Profoundly in times of the distant past

Our forefathers began a glorious act

Of thanking God for all His caring deeds.

We carry on the torch. We plant the seeds

Of gratitude in our hearts. Plants burgeon 

And we reap ripe fruits of satisfaction.

 

Our Granaries are full. We thank Thee Lord.

Our Silos overflow. We thank Thee Lord

For the rains, for the sun and for the wind 

We had and for the yields that brimmed our land.

Our songs of praise soar in Thy mighty name

O'er the red and white flag that boosts our fame. 

 

Our tables are decked with pumpkins and corn.

Thanksgiving Dinner’s made for everyone.  

With staple*  and spicy pie** we shall dine

And grandly end   the day with our red wine.  

We’ll keep thanking you through every good deed

Thus be blessing to nations far and wide.

 

 

 

* Roast Turkey/ Roast Ham, gravy,  and Cranberry Sauce

** Canadian pumpkin pie made spicier on the Thanksgiving
