My Journey to God

A Thanksgiving Day Prayer

Dear God,

Thank you for all you give us.
Thank you for the sun’s bright light,
Thank you for the stars at night.
Thank you for our life on Earth,
Thank for our gifts at birth.
Thank you for the gifts you give,
Thank you for our friends that live.
Thank you for the air we breathe,
Thank you for the wind and seas.
At the center of this is you, yourself,
Your life, your death, your sacred birth.
Your love for us is oh, so bright.
Never ceasing, never entering
The darkness of night.
