Thanksgiving is continuous
For those who know:
Does not require fixed day and month
And Macy’s show.
Thanksgiving is an act of will
For those with much:
Iron strength still comes from bended knees.
‘Tis not a crutch.
Well and ill, we all partake
Of Your heart’s fires;
A billion hungers, yet Your peace
Fills all desires.
We are the richest of Your poor;
Your ransomed kin;
Of every skin, of peace and war–
All gathered in.
We are the prodigals come home;
One destiny.
A cross hangs from our wall:
Thanksgiving tree.
Thanksgiving is continuous
For those who know . . .
