It’s a time to give thanks to God
For all he has given us
He gave each of us life

…

He gave each of us peace
We have been given family and friends
He has given us our home

…

It's a time to give thanks to everything we see
He made YOU and everyone around you
Time to be thankful for all we have

…

Giving thanks to God
Is giving back praise for all he has done
We all have something to be thankful for

…

What are you thankful for?

&quot;I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There&#039;s no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it. &quot;
