Thanksgiving Prayer lyrics

We've come to the time in the season

When family and friends gather near

To offer a prayer of Thanksgiving

For blessings we've known through the years

To join hands and thank the creator

And now when Thanksgiving is due

This year when I count my blessings

I'm thanking the Lord He made you

This year when I count my blessings

I'm thanking the Lord He made you

I'm grateful for the laughter of children

The sun and the wind and the rain

The color of blue in your sweet eyes

The sight of a high ballin' train

The moon rise over a prairie

An old love that you've made new

And this year when I count my blessings

I'm thanking the Lord He made you

This year when I count my blessings

I'm thanking the Lord He made you

And when the time comes to be going

It won't be in sorrow and tears

I'll kiss you goodbye and I'll go on my way

Grateful for all of the years

I thank for all that you gave me

For teaching me what love can do

And Thanksgiving day for the rest of my life

I'm thanking the Lord He made you

Thanksgiving Day for the rest of my life

I'm thanking the Lord He made you
