A Different Kind of Thanksgiving Day


Of course, every year is different, such a variety,

    but it’s always nice, when our family we see.


Of course, count our blessings, we name them each one,

    and we are so grateful for what the LORD has done.


Of course, so many uncertainties every day, 

    so that’s why we remember to pray ! 


Of course, this has been another election year,

    such bad attitudes in the U.S. can bring fear.


Of course, that COVID stuff with so many dying,

    probably you, too, know some family that’s crying.


Of course, government, socialism, and hate

    spoils any happy day clear up to this date. 


Of course, our future we really care about,

    our time to die is unknown, so should we pout ? 


Of course, we went to Sunday School — a good start,

    learned John 3:16, accepted Jesus into our heart. 


Of course, we’ve grown up and it’s time to review,

    read the Bible more, confess sins, pray to God, too. 


Of course, we can give our thanks at any time !

    Stuff you and I write might not always rhyme !
