~ Thanksgiving Recipe Gift ~

If I should make up today
A thanksgiving recipe
What might I want to pray
For the tender heart of thee

Might I frolic through the pretty forest
For it's goodness sweet
Uncover gorgeous colors
To create you such a treat

Would I climb on high for gentleness
To find a joy beyond our reach
Somewhere far above the stars
Or upon a peaceful beach

Might I discover every loveliness
For only perfect peace would do
To make a Thanksgiving blessing
For the precious heart of you

Shall I journey down a valley deep
In prayer, to wend my way
To pluck the most delicious
Delight that I could gain

Then from the wondrous hand of God
All love will come tumbling down
To overcome each heartache
And relieve your every pain.

God bless you my friend, again and again

"Perfect submission, perfect delight!
Visions of rapture
now burst on my sight;
Angels descending bring from above,
echoes of mercy, whispers of love."
Fanny J. Crosby
