Thanksgiving Guests

Mother Nature we are your guests
and have so much to learn
by silent observation
as each season has its turn.

Like eagles soar with open wings
our spirits will soar too
if we live each day in touch
with the Power dressing you.

Much like the many evergreens
we too must evergrow
and stand united in God's love
because He wills it so;

And like the radiant colors
of the varied hardwood trees
we'll spread His beauty always
for open hearts to see.

Now at this special time of year
while Autumn's glory is at hand
Mother Nature as your guests
God moves us to give thanks.

So we thank our Great Creator
for the beauty this life brings,
for time and space and seasons
and the strength of eagles wings.

Sirach 43: vs 29-30
"The Lord is awesome in His greatness;
His Power is overwhelming.
Though you do your best to praise Him,
He is greater than you can ever express."
