Thanksgiving



What have we to be thankful for
The land in which we live
The freedom of speech and liberty
The freedom to take and to give

The freedom to learn forever
What no man can take away
The comeliness of blessings
On this, our Thanksgiving Day

Life is what we make of it
We build our standards high
We do our best in everything
We live, we love, and we die

For who, when he could get ahead
Would let a chance deprave
You never know, just set your goal
And live from day to day

But strive! Determination 
Is one way to pass life's test
Be meritorious in all you do
By your work, you help the rest

So, what have we to be thankful for?
Our lives, our strength, our will
The gifts of love and purity
The dreams we may fulfill

So let us commemorate this day
The Thanksgiving of Joy and Peace
And bless the guides before us...
Until our lives do cease
