My pictures capture but a few aspects of our peaceful, fun and relaxing Thanksgiving.The day was full of our traditions including the Walk, the feast and the Turkey Bowl. 62 family members (four generations), and 6 dogs joined us to celebrate God's Goodness in providing for all of our needs.
These pictures are set to the words of "Let all Things Now Living", (text by Katherine Davis, music by Gerald H. Knight)
Let all things now living
A song of thanksgiving
To God our Creator
triumphantly raise;
Who fashioned and made us,
Protected and stayed us,
By guiding us onto the end of our days.
God's banners are o'er us,
Pure light goes before us,
A pillar of light shining forth in the night;
Till shadows have vanished
And darkness is banished,
As forward we travel from light into light.
His law he enforces,
The stars in their courses,
The sun in its orbit obediently shine,
The hills and the mountains,
The rivers and fountains,
The depths of the ocean,
proclaim God divine.
We, too, should be voicing
Our love and rejoicing
With glad adoration,
a song let us raise:
Till all things now living
Unite in thanksgiving,
To God in the highest, hosanna and praise!
