Thanksgiving is a special time
Made for family and friends
Imagine all the Pilgrims
That left their homes back then
Just to sail across an ocean
And start their lives again
Now we are all spoiled
We have everything we need
Our lives are so very easy
It's a different style indeed
The most important thing of all
Is how we share our love inside
Make yourself an example
Of how God wants us all to be
Open up your hearts
Fill them with joyful glee
Remember the special meaning
Of this Thanksgiving Day
In all its perfect harmony
It sends in each and every way
Enjoy your festive meal
And with your family pray
Just build your life on love
Live in peaceful ways
Don't depend on material things
Which we cannot always reap
Bow your head and pray
Simply, like back in the early days
Shake everyones hand
And laugh and have some fun
Share a Happy Thanksgiving
With all the ones you love
