Celebrate Thanksgiving Day

“Thanksgiving Song” by Mary Chapin Carpenter

Mary Chapin Carpenter

I found this song on youtube today and I love it.  It’s a warm and touching song with sweet lyrics and perfect for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Lyrics as follows:

Grateful for each hand we hold
Gathered round this table.
From far and near we travel home,
Blessed that we are able.

Grateful for this sheltered place
With light in every window,
Saying “welcome, welcome
Share this feast
Come in away from sorrow.”

Father, mother, daughter, son,
Neighbor, friend and friendless;
All together everyone
In the gift of loving-kindness.

Grateful for what’s understood,
And all that is forgiven;
We try so hard to be good,
To lead a life worth living.

Father, mother, daughter, son,
Neighbor, friend, and friendless;
All together everyone
Let grateful days be endless.

Grateful for each hand we hold
Gathered round this table
