Holy Father, We gather together to ask your blessing this Thanksgiving Day;
God bless America, land that I love;
You stand beside us in times of need, as of September 11, giving Peace and Love to all;
Stand beside her and guide her,
through the night with the Light from above;
Your handiworks are our home where warm loving hearts of family ties are brought together;
From the mountains, to the prairies,
to the ocean white with foam;
We raise our voices in praise to you through Christ our Lord.
God Bless America, my Home sweet Home.
Amen
Barbara Hawkey, 2001
